Well things just got a bit more interesting. Eightball and Crossbones(wink) don't know how to write/draw a boring chapter. I thought this issue was particularly strong on the art side of things; Albuquerque does a bang-up job everytime, but this was something else. I could sense the speed of the cars, and feel the friction when they side-swiped eachother because of the energy coursing through the sharp linework.
The coloring was also done really well,so props to Mookie; the contrast of the moonlit racing and the sepia glow of Travis' childhood flashback sequences really popped. The three page sequence leading up to the "Sweet" last page, when Travis finally--maybe--rescues Piper, was so rad it barely needed the words.
Snyder as usual kicked ass on the script, the back and forth flashbacks worked really well and wasn't confusing to me at all. The story was jumping between three points in time, so it could easily have gotten confusing in less adept hands. I will be interested to see how Scott explains Skinners return, but I was happy to see him back; apparently he killed Travis' whole family, so I hope Trav doesn't turn out to be Cash's kid from mini cause that might mean Felicia's dead. No matter, I trust Eightball,Crossbones and Co. to keep bringing the awesome every month.
Also, I noticed the Nocturne's record playing in the scene in Trav's room, and I read that they are a part of a future arc, so that was a nice touch I thought.
