Families are complicated. You love them, you fight with them, and you can't live without them. Even when you try. This comic from Family Odysseys at Ghost Machine, has truly captured this truth with an incredibly fun sci fi, time traveling twist. With each issue we go deeper into what's going on, and why. All while creating more mystery that pulls you further into the story. Every issue of The Rocketfellers manages to perfectly balance family drama with a sci fi action punch. Read Full Review

Plot
This installment shows how the TIME ZONE WHITNESS PROGRAM worked in the future, sending protected witnesses to criminal acts back in time. This is the job of Roland's brother, Reggie.
There is an exciting and entertaining sequence where they show a case of recovering a witness who was hidden in the era of the Roman gladiators.
It also shows how Rosie was doubting the health of the relationship between her daughter, Raina, and Jacob. Jacob is hiding dark secrets from his company.
This new story arc continues with shocking revelations about Raina and her relationship with the Rocketfellers, nourishing this unknown part of the story, but it fails to reveal why Raina went mad and murdered her mother. more
