The long wait in between issues was making me consider switching to trades, but after reading this issue I am not sure if I want to do that. First I want to say the art is some of the best I have ever gazed my eyes upon. Take out all the words and you could still read the story perfectly with just the pictures. This issue touches on a little bit of everything from media misquotes to being 2nd best to the next "15 minutes of fame" person. Millar writes a comic character that uses the internet like a high school super hero would in todays world. The end also raises some questions for future issues.

This has been a great year for Millar, especially after the mess that was Civil War. However this series leaves me cold.
