I shouldn't neglect Greg Land's artwork in this review, as it has been the one reasonably consistent element over the course of the entire series. His figures are solid, his action is suitably grand and bombastic, and his facial work shows a real improvement over previous issues, with fewer of the distracting variations in character models from panel to panel than we've been used to so far. However, the slickness of the art (in all of its photo-referenced, multiple splash-page glory) coupled with the lacklustre script only serves to reinforce the sense that Ultimate Power has turned out to be an empty spectacle, written by three distinct writers who have simply failed to gel in such a way as is necessary to provide a consistent, cohesive story.
