The best superhero fiction I’ve read. Deeply absorbing character and voice. A gritty, darkly compelling story that looks the reality of power in violence in the eye and doesn’t let you look away. Impossible to put down. 

Felt like a few loose threads/unresolved plot points that may have been set up only to pay off in a sequel?
