Better then the last issue, but still a let down. ill re-review after i re-read the series, hoping for it to make sense. Frankly, i think i get what he's saying but its weighed down with obscurity, writing mistakes, lame mis-steps and honestly i think he should have made more sense of it for the readers. MEH overall...i wish i had NOT bought it monthly, as a collection it MIGHT be OK.

Another quality issue of Velvet, wraps up the arc pretty well and keeps us eager for more. Brubakers writing is soem of the best in the industry, and its great to see him turn toward spy fiction. Epting and Breitweiser make a wonderful team, bringing the perfect Art to this book! Thier only flaw is staying on schedule, so hopefully we see the next arc hit its marks or turn to bi-monthly.

Kinda short for an arc ending issue, especially with the delays between arcs we have seen so far. Its a bad prediction for the future. Only focuses on Babylon and deosnt really give much progression, but its OK. Very short on pages, for the price, at only 20 pages plus wasted ones.

When exactly did you get bored of this?

StarKnight - Oct 18, 2022

To GreyMouser- You realize that the artist is a black man, right? The writer's been accused of this before, and has some good rebuttals. I suggest doing at least a minute of research before claiming something as controversial as this. The nazis were probably the worst humans ever to exist, and if you think any alternate history in which the win is "white supremacist pandering", just don't read them! Yes, I just copied my entire comment from before. You won't get any more effort from me.

Difficult to review, this book has some good and interesting bits and some gross bullshit as well. Even if you dismiss the pro-nazi sentiment of the world being 'better place' due to nazi victory, some aspects are just broken and kind of sloppy writing. The end is the weakest portion IMO, even if there are some interesting moments with overman/superman. I think this would be the worst issue, even more

It isn't pro-Nazi. The people living in a society where the Nazis won the Second World War, and indoctrinated to believe in Nazism from birth, are very likely to believe that Nazism was a good thing. Hitler, Goebbels, Himmler, Goering, Lammers et al did not sit around twirling their moustaches and laughing about how evil they were: they believed that they were doing the right thing. Anyone who thinks that most evil is done by those who want to be evil has fails to understand humanity and histo
