I liked it a lot, Twitch is in serious trouble, I hope Sam arrives in time to help him solve the case.
The case takes a decidedly dark turn for the detectives, but a new lead brings them one step closer.
There's a darker, greedier edge to the Spawn universe that McFarlane, Goff and Kudranski our doing doing a pretty good job of exploring. It's just not terribly interesting beyond the visual. There is a certain amount of poetry in the way things are set up visually. But it's still not terribly deep. It doesn't really engage the deeper notion of what it is that's going on with respect to the crime and the activity in qu homicide remains as things continue to move around in the world of contraband and narcotics and things like that.

SAM AND TWITCH CASE FILES #5 fills in the blanks surrounding the killer responsible for the web of lies and corruption in Plainfield. Sadly, the big reveal hits with as much force as a soft pillow. The gritty, moody art adds to the serious crime thriller aesthetic, but the lack of clarity in the darker scenes and a poor lettering choice take you out of the viewing experience. Read Full Review
Unfortunately this issue has been by far the weakest for ao many reasons that make no sense. 1)The art was either great or abysmal depending on which page you were on.2) The lettering was a mess 3) The story seemed very unclear but I put a lot of that on the weak art. 4) Who the hell is buying that Twitch didn't realise his gun was missing and when did he revert to an automatic as he used to always have a revolver because of reliability. All in I'm really disappointed and hope this isn't how it starts to drift away. Todd is bad for spinning to many plates and then things needlessly get cancelled
