  Gary Frank turns in another fine effort, as he does a lovely job capturing the underlying premise that the methods that are being used against Hyperion are quite precise & methodical, and the visual of a clock being taken apart makes for a wonderful visual element that nicely captures this idea. The art also nicely captures the cold, calculating nature of the man who is working to bring down Hyperion. I also loved the scenes where this man's underlings are sent out into the world to do his dirty work, as there's a lovely reaction shot where Stanley comes to realize that jumping to Hyperion's defence would not be in his best interests. There's also a nice scene where Doctor Spectrum pays a visit to his underwater friend, where the art effectively captures the various emotional reactions of the young woman as Joe questions her about the accident. The big scene where the two leave the ocean sells well the power that Doctor Spectrum commands. Read Full Review
