Sweet Tooth, Vol. 3: Animal Armies by Jeff Lemire
3.0
Jepperd puts together a desperate plan to free Gus, not knowing he has already escaped thanks to a sympathiser within the militia camp (even though their freedom doesn't last). Meanwhile, back at Gus's old home, Abbot and Singh make some discoveries about who Gus's father was, and how Gus was born.
This was a messy, violent volume, which raised more questions than it answered. There was a lot of action but not a lot of movement in the story. At least, though, our main protagonists are on the way to where they think they might find some answers. Abbot is in hot pursuit though, and he not only has a pack of human wolf hybrids, he also has the son that Jepperd thought was dead (twice!).
Probably the only nice thing that happens in this volume is that the hybrid children are bonding with each other, and it seems to be them against the rest of the world. All of the humans tagging along with them to Alaska have their own hidden agendas, and at this point it would be hard to like or trust any of them with the possible exception of the two women that Jepperd rescued.
Still, this continues to be an intriguing story.
