I found this book pretty interesting. It seems like Hero had a hard row to hoe, when it came to the men in her life even before the plague. Although her story is one of those where you realise it was her choices that really got her into trouble. The art and coloring are actually notable in this issue. Not something I say about the series on a whole. Here though, I think it looks a bit above average. What I found most dramatic was the internal struggle and I think I will enjoy finding out what comes next.
