"SLEEPING PARTNERS" Part Two
Behind a wraparound cover by PROPHET and KING CITY's Brandon Graham, Hip Flask and Vanity Case enjoy a cup of tea and sympathy, and Miki meets Apostrophe.
Near the end, however, the title does pick up a bit. Its definitely clear the writers are holding back, rather than unloading streams of information to a confused audience.

The book has moments of sympathy for the hybrids and their situation plus an occasional dose of humor. And cruelty, as on the final page of this particular story.
