Absolution #3 (OF 6)
You've seen Gage's work for Marvel, WildStorm, IDW, and others, but you've never seen his imagination unleashed with absolutely no restrictions...Until now. This series explodes into stores with a Regular cover by Jacen Burrows, Wraparound by Juan Jose Ryp and Crime Files Edition (featuring the vile murderous Gator) by Matt Martin, as well as a Vigilante Retailer Order Incentive. He wants to be forgiven...but he doesn't want to stop. ABSOLUTION introduces John Dusk, a superhero in a world where they're a sanctioned arm of law enforcement. But this veteran hero has been scarred by his exposure to man's infinite capacity for evil, and he's seen one too many perpetrators escape justice. One day he crosses the line... lets a murderer die... and discovers it feels good. In this issue, someone discovers John Dusk's secret, and tries to use the knowledge to blackmail him into killing targets of their choice. Does this mean the end of the road for John... imprisonment... or something far worse? The acclaimed new miniseries reaches a shocking turning point as we are introduced to even more of his allies and foes!

pretty good book so far. I think it kinda got lost coming out at the same time as The Mighty and Irredeemable. I'm still interested to see where it goes, and I'm glad I picked it up again this week.
