A horrible ending to the most boring and pointless work of the great Moore's career. Far from feminist, Halo is like the simpering girl in the first Indiana Jones film (or 2nd, who can recall that crap?). Halo finally does something and it's the corrupt act of joining the military and taking part in an inter-dimensional war. She then becomes fixated upon a sociopath, General Cannibal, just as she did with Lux in attempt to escape her life of poverty. It's so 1800s and it makes her final act of vengeance/justice ring completely hollow.
A waste of time.
