DMZ #44

Written by Brian Wood
Art by Ryan Kelly


Is it dumb that I didn't see that end coming? It seems so obvious, but for that very reason, I thought for sure that Wood was going to take us into a different direction, in this, his investigation into the psyche of a suicide bomber in the DMZ.

This entire arc has been interesting for the way in which is shone a light into a segment of the DMZ that has been with us from the very beginning (as the first page attests), but up to this point, has remained hidden. I would like it very much if Wood continues to take this approach from time to time, and give Matty, Zee and them a bit more of a break.

I was thinking while reading this, yet again, how well Wood and Kelly work together, although this story is very far away from titles like Local and New York Four. They have developed into a very versatile team, and continue to put out excellent work.
