The Absorbascon
Hath-Seth has unleashed her (he is in a she form in this reincarnation) wrath against Carter and Kendra, claiming what´s hers (or what she believes to be her destiny): killing the birds one more time and living forever with her lover, all that with the help of a Thanagarian device called Absorbascon, that has the ability of absorving souls and knowlegde - this sor far was the weakes issue of the series, showing some strange fighting scenes (one moment Carter is tackling Hath-Seth with the oportunity of ending the battle, but then he concentrate on her lover, a man named Rajak) and some boring dialogues at first, but then Carter shows his ace in the hole and everything starts to be fun and interesting again, including the dialogues - unfortunately this was the issue marked for a slow pace and some strikes from Rags (not that he didn´t execute the art well, not at all, he handled the panels in his traditional way) in the way the action sequence wasn´t the best. This is still a very good series, only this arc story that is a little slow and this whole Hath-Seth thing (though it was probably meant to happen at a certain point, because she´s the greatest enemy of the birds) wasn´t very structured or interesting (for instance, the plot of Hath-Seth in Brightest Day was much more interesting than this one).
