Before Lee Harvey Oswald took his fateful place in the window of the Texas Book Depository, he spent time behind the Iron Curtain. This is fact. But he wasn't just a sympathizer-he was on a secret mission to infiltrate the Soviet Ministry of Lies. This is Truth.
Theres a WHOLE lot for The Department of Truth to cover with respect to the nature of truth and popular consciousness. Tynion, Simmonds and Bidikar are cutting a very narrow path through the darker ends of the 20th century in ways that continue to be compelling. Its not certain how much longer they can keep this up, but its deliciously dark fun so far. Read Full Review
Further twisting the narrative, Tynion and Simmonds provide another exciting installment of the long-running series and ends on an enthralling note. The fight for the nature of the truth continues to the present, but a significant shift occurred in 1963. As we learn more about Oswald, the truth becomes more challenging to define among the lies and beliefs we have been fed. We get a peek at what lies within the man, but The Department of Truth #24 shows that there is still a lot to learn about the man. Read Full Review
Of course, the flaws of The Department of Truth remain, but this arc still leaves plenty of questions surrounding one of the biggest moments in American history and one of the biggest unsolved questions of the comic. Read Full Review
I liked it. It's a tiny bit confusing, but add another layer to this conspiracy that keeps me wanting more.
