    As far as final issues go, once I got past my initial sense of disappointment regarding the trickery that Brian Michael Bendis engaged in the opening pages, the issue is question turned out to be quite entertaining.

    Yeah, why not. That was a good ending. Ready for The Pulse now, which I never read before.
