The Rundown: With a monster on the loose, Jack will discover the shocking truth about Farmington.
Still suffering the effects of being drugged, Jack wakes up at home and tries to connect with his father. At the same time, Inga decides to reach out to Jack and discover what he knows about her operation while her husband deals with an ongoing murder investigation.
A creature with a connection to both Jack and Inga decides to come forward and go after Inga’s husband as Jack finally starts putting the pieces together. Pieces that will lead back to an unexpected source.
The Story: Seeley and Fleecs deliver another fantastic story in this issue. The mystery continues to be compelling and the story takes some interesting and engaging takes with both Jack and Inga. I love the growing conflict with them and how the story is building their eventual confrontation. The story takes some great time to build Jack’s growing realization and it is done brilliantly towards the end of the issue.
The Art: Seeley and Fleecs deliver beautiful art throughout the issue. I continue to love the visual style of both artists and how those styles complement each other.
