I'm sorry the world is a significantly worse place than you realized.

This was a much better issue, the story flowed beautifully between all scenes, there was actual story, actual dialogue, I think Fantasy comics don't work if you don't put in the word count, it becomes so shallow otherwise which was the case for most issues of this series.
Galahad and Lancelot are face to face now
There is a dragon somewhere in the mix
Government fighters are involved, our protagonists are involved, Heads are going to roll!

ONCE & FUTURE #16, available now from BOOM! Studios, throws Duncan and allies back into the fray, as the tales of old continue to warp and complicate an already wrought situation. For these are beings that do not belong in the world of men, as they say.

It’s hard to believe that it was only fifteen issues ago that Duncan first learned the truth about his family history. Well, some of the truth. I personally have no doubt that there is a lot that has been kept from him, even now.

The fact remains that it was just a short time ago that he went from being an ordinary guy to a guy that battles monsters in the dark. Normally family secrets aren’t quite so dangerous, not in the literal sense.

Ever since that moment, Duncan (with the help of others) has been battling. The legends of old are waking up, and they aren’t intending to treat the human world with any level of kindness. And thus, that is where Once & Future #16 begins.
