I like this run. And contrary to some other feelings I've seen, I think this issue gave too much information. Eldritch stories work best with very very little details of whats actually going on, it creates suspense and unknown and lets us fill in details without it becoming lore-dumpy. This was cool though, excited for more.
Jo Mullein and Hal Jordan face judgment. But what will the Lantern’s verdict be?
"If you prick me, do I bleed". He's cooking here

Pretty decent. I think the superhero stuff ends up being a distraction for the grounded story King is trying to tell. A little heavy handed with its message as well. This issue is a highlight though.

This issue convinced me I need this book on my shelf
Brs is going through one of those days that seems like a lifetime; when so many things happen and change so fast and so dramatically that he can't keep track of what the hell is going on. In this penultimate issue to the acclaimed miniseries, can he figure things out before it's too late?

The Vision wants to be human, and what's more human than family? He goes to the laboratory where he was created, where Ultron molded him into a weapon, where he first rebelled against his given destiny, where he first imagined that he could be more, that he could be good, that he could be a man, a normal, ordinary man. And he builds them. A wife, V...

I just feel like it would've made more sense to have him die at the ranch this time. Seemed like there were enough dangerous possibilities and the return to the city at the end felt random.
At 11 years old, Brs's world was only as big as his house. But that changed when his family headed to his grandparents' countryside ranch. And there at a place where the sun was stronger and the stars shone brighter Brs would suddenly see everything under a new light!

And each of those moments is a portal, a portal to a different life, sometimes for the better, or sometimes for the worse. Any moment can open us to that life we dream of, or take everything away.

Good ending, interesting art change though I appreciate honoring the work Foreman put into this series. Lemire offering some not bad pencilling himself.
A special finale to Jeff Lemires run on the series by the creative team that launched Animal Man in The New 52! What is left of Buddy in the wake of Evolve or Die?
What an incredible run, baker vs the evil totem is the best fight in this series. Jeff Lemire eat your heart out for the work you put in these 28 issues. Adding Sweet Tooth to my list because o this and Absolute Flash.
