Finally we get some insight into Mordru and the Questing Queen and why they want to destroy this town as soon as possible. There is plenty of character development for all our heroes, and just as solicited the traitor was a total surprise. My big complaint with this book is not knowing what’s beyond Little Spring. Why does the horde need to get to Alba Sarum so badly? How does this play into the bigger scope of the DCnU? Can we get some perspective here, instead of slowly advancing skirmish orders? I love Cornells writing, but even Stormwatch got somewhere after 4 issues.
