This series continues to knock it out of the park, and Lazarus has ruined a lot of other dystopian fiction for me. It's incredibly well written and drawn, has great layered characters, the world building blows me away, and the plot is so good.

We finally find Malcolm Carlyle's skeleton in his closet that makes both his wife and Jakob Hock despise him. It's too perfect. Especially as Malcolm casts himself as the hero of the world. His speech was so relatable about the times we're living in until Rucka pulls the knife of Malcolm's main character energy and ego.

Lark's Forever in the scene with the helicopter was perfect. She reminded me of Hamilton's Sarah Conner in T2. Kudos.

I'm sad this story is coming to an end with the next arc, but I'm glad I've stuck with it since the beginning and gotten friends to read it.
