Well this one was brutal.

We're back to the monsters, which is cool. This one is a doozy, too. Erica is on her own, but I figure that she might be taking on a Padawan after this installment--the victim of this Monster of the Week is a pretty hard case.

Again, Tynion expands the world, showing that the Order has worldwide scope and reach. It is interesting, though...the operative they bring in to deal with Erica causes more collateral damage and risk of exposure than Erica, so I'm not so sure about all that...

Still good. The writing is tight. The art is disturbingly drippy. The story is progressing nicely. I have the next one here with me, so I can jump right in.
