After 50 issues that have gone continuously down in quality. I'm glad the series is ending. I'm not sure why they never switched writers over the entire four-year run of the book. It needed a new perspective and never got it. They let Kelly T. run it into the ground. This storyline with the brood was entirely drawn out to the point of boredom. Let's see what happens with the final issue.

Pretty good story beat this monthly format is damaging the enjoyment overall. The story feel randomly truncated without giving any pay off.
