    The story by James Tynion IV is really great. Tynion really does a great job of scripting this to perfection. I very much enjoyed where we ended up by the end of the issue. I am intrigued to see if the quality stories on this book can possibly continue. Read Full Review

    This issue deals with cryptids and how Bigfoot and his ilk are actually a lot more dangerous than what they let on. It's an interesting issue, one of the better books in this series. Read Full Review
