As with any extended story, the final outcome remains to be seen, but judging by this first installment, it's more of the expected Jeff Parker quality. He's got his characters figured out, so given the chance to explicate them, he's probably ready with charts, graphs, and EKG readouts. There's little chance of faltering here.
