I feel sad for this series. During the hype up to its launch, there is so much potential. New characters, new histories and done by the great Alan Davis. Needless to say tons of speculation abound on its cancellation within the year ... but I rather not indulge except to say ... what a waste!
Okay ... basically as the title indicates, this title is about a special family that seemed to have very long lived and very unusual members ... with some who looked like brothers and sisters but are in actual fact not ... while others looks far more aged or younger than they should ... the history and truth behind are being fed to us bit by bit while there is an ongoing story with villains for each issue
These 2 issues are pretty much one story arc where we finally have a wee bit of a downtime after the first 5 ... and here the younger Destine brother and sister (twins) ... are attending regular school and having a bit of a problem ... but as they are recently inducted to the world of capes ... young Rory decides to go on an adventure to get away from their guardian ... his twin sister follows along and escapades and laughter ensues
As the cover shows, he dreams of working alongside as partner/ sidekick to the greats in America and so its off toe USA for the kids!
Good stuff and decent Davis' artwork
Ratings: 7/10
