I wasn't looking forward to this issue when I saw the cover. “Giant Sized Action!” it proclaims. Ugh. Are we going to get an all splash-page issue? Thankfully, no. The first ten pages are all one-panel pages that depict Tyler (he's giant) fighting the big, black demon thing. I will say that the first page is one of the best pages I've seen in comics in some time. It has Bode and Kinsey cowering on the ground and looking up. Gabriel Rodriguez is knocking it out of the park with his art on this series. We also get some typical teen stuff when Kinsey shows up at school wearing her life preserver and ready to hang with the losers and not Dodge (he's pissed). This is genuinely the best book out there. It started a little too violent and dark but eventually the kids all got stories and emotions that fleshed them out. It's gorgeous and entertaining and has successfully maintained its excellence. ***1/2
