What he got was a trip through the past unlike any other.. Having broken the timestream, will Detective Chambers be able to save the young man's life, and if so, what kind of consequences might it have on the present? The answers to these questions and more lay waiting for you in The Twilight Zone.
Straczynski appears to be working toward some great crescendo. He has brought everything together and worked it to a peak. At the end of issue 11, the author appears to have brought everything together for some universe changing event. He has worked to bring disparate characters into one place at one time around one critical juncture. It is simultaneously critical to one man, to a small group of people, and to everyone, but all for different reasons. A man seeks meaning. A family seeks closure. A world seeks a light of hope. In the next issue the world may be saved or lost but not by a cosmic hero with the secret identity. It will be saved or lost based on a normal guy, one without powers, someone just like us.

Vilanova and Francavilla create a hauntingly beautiful environment that perfectly evokes the mood that was always set in Rod Serlings universe. The colors somehow pop while not being distracting, and the artist placed enough details in both the fore- and background to be stimulating while not being overwhelming. The problem with a lot of artists and colorists is their talent. Art and color sometimes turns into "Look at everything I can do!" rather than complimenting the story. Kudos to both Vilanova and Francavilla for showing off their obvious talent while avoiding this trap. Read Full Review
I'll be back for the conclusion but this issue mostly came off as superfluous. Read Full Review
