The apocalyptic war continues causing many twists and changes in the power balance of the American nations.

By the end of this one I realized there’s less than ten issues left in this story and I won’t even know how to handle it when it’s over.

The end is drawing ever nearer. The Chosen are being picked off one by one, nations are falling and power is being consolidated by only the most powerful. Death and his son, Babylon, travel westward to reunite with Xiaolin in what will surely culminate in one final battle against the remaining Chosen and the Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

I love/hate the anticipation for each subsequent issue. I love this damn story.

Do you think I could open a business in a storage unit complex, but instead of storage, it's man caves for rent? People could just rent them and have a place to go on a Sunday? Away from the house, but not at work, and it's kinda shitty so your family doesn't really want to come? Like 4 buddies could go in on it together, and it'd be pretty cheap.

I think this could work EXCEPT the big problem is plumbing. If you're going to have like 150 man caves all together, and no urinal in each one? That's never going to end right.

The build up continues & its a good one at that. It's so satisfying to see the direction of the players in a complicated drama finally start moving in a way you can understand. Major players are getting picked off, people who've been searching find, machinations collapse, all building to a final throw down. Ready for the next one!

I liked it but it had less action than the previous volume. It's starting to build up again, I guess. Nevertheless, this is still one of my favorite graphic novels out there. :) And also, I'm on a roll. So I think I'll be finishing the last two volumes today too. Looking forward to it!!!
