Art by Jamie McKelvie, with David Lafuente and Charity Larrison
Gillen and McKelvie are taking some big risks with this title, and doing some interesting things. So far, each issue has been set in the same club, and the same events are being shown from different viewpoints, but not in a Rashoman style - the events over-lap more than coincide.
This issue shines the spotlight on Seth Bingo and Silent Girl, the DJs at the club. We see only their side of any conversation and/or song request, and the camera never moves from the confines of their booth - Gillen basically wrote an issue that could be very easily adapted to a very tiny stage.
As to how this issue works in regards to the entire series? I think it's a little too early to tell. I do know that when the last issue comes out, and I want to re-read the whole thing, this is the book that's going to require the most attention.
