Among my favorite female superheroes, Kate Spencer was one of the best. And the reason was because her "super" side didn't come from metagenes, alien origin, accidents or whatever. She was a normal woman that just wanted justice in her world.
And when she was not wearing her suit, she was not only a respected lawyer but also a single mom that was not portrayed as a perfect human being but one with flaws balanced with heroic actions and maybe that's why I like her so much. When she returned, fighting in Ciudad Juarez - a city known for its high number of crimes against women and unsolved murders - I really loved how Andreyko put this issue out to the open, and he chose the perfect title: Forgotten.
Anyway, Andreyko promised more of Manhunter in the DCU for this 2009 and I'll be eagerly expecting her. If you haven't read Manhunter yet, I truly recommend it :)

It was perfect

That's all I can say. It was perfect, the whole damn series was perfect. Not to build it up so newbies experience hype backlash, but this is the best book DC is currently putting out (We can argue about whether or not the very best is Blue Beetle/Secret Six/Wonder Woman but Manhunter is up there) and you should pick up the trades.
Reason why it only gets a 4/5 is the Michael Gaydos art. Love his art, it's just not suited for superheroes.

A Great Series Going Out With a Bad Issue!

This was not a good way to go for this series. I have enjoyed this book quite a bit, but this two-parter really sucked. The cover was good, but I have never been a fan really of the art of this book. I know this issue is set in the future, but the characterization seemed off...maybe Marc Andreyko was sad for having to end it. Sweeney Todd is a stupid villain also.
