If you thought our last review indicated a lot of goings-on, well, this next issue continues that trend. So for this review, let's try to list them like a fan's letter to the comic style with bullet points:1. Cover - AWESOME. Regardless of what some may say about the posture or the shading, all I can say is that it projects so much awesomeness in terms of power and what each of the characters are all about that the pose actually works!
2. First part - the first few pages of this comic continues from the last with Prophet now taking on the SPOILER ALERT robotic bad guys supposedly sent from his future by his nemesis. Prophet has no choice because after his battle with Team Youngblood before teaming up with TY, they were exhausted and most of this encounter happens off panel and we see Proph as last man standing. Ah well ...
3. Next part - unfortunately we will have to wait for issue 4 to see the conclusion of Proph's side as we now jump to the main YB team headed by Shaft as they spend a few pages on downtime handling admin work
4. Side plots - naturally all good comics needed this and here we have creatures looking like Kombat in outerspace chatting away and gritting their teeth and posturing around
But guess what? All the above? Not even half of the comic. Now without further SPOILERS you can imagine actually how much is happening here in this comic - sub plots, main plots, characterization, all that and more and so many of these new characters would spin off into their own limited series and ongoing (short lived or otherwise). It's just amazing if you are a kid and getting your hands on an issue of a comic like this ... just plain ... wow!
