While I’m writing this I’m listening to a Word Balloon podcast and
Brubaker and Fraction so I am incredibly excited for those two to work
together on this book starting with the highly anticipated #500.
However, most people have not been pleased with this current Hippie
storyline, but I’ve actually enjoyed it thus far although this issue is
probably the worst of the whole arc. Due to two different artists
working on this issue I actually felt like I was reading two different
books because the art styles are totally different; it simply didn’t
work. We basically have two big fight scenes in this issue and then we
finally get the official move to SF that we all knew was coming. Like I
said I’ve enjoyed this arc more than most people, but I guess it just
ran a little too long because this final issue didn’t do much for me.

Story: 2 - Average

  1. Yeah, I kept waiting for something that happened in this arc to mean something. 

    I also wonder if Brubaker is deliberately writing Scott and Emma as idiots, because every word out of their mouths seems to be talking about how they don’t know anything.  

    I am looking forward to issue 500 + beyond, even if I’m not that excited about the artist choices.
