Written by David TischmanArt by Philip Bond and David Hahn
I knew this title was going to be worth coming back to after a slightly disjointed first issue. This time around, a lot more gets explained, as we learn that there was no alien incident in Roswell back in the day; instead, a group of businessmen pulled a fast one on the government, and have been, ever since, raking in defense dollars to prepare America for the aliens' return.
Somehow, this has put Maggie MacGuffin in trouble, as her Congressman boyfriend is one of the politicians being strung along. She's hanging out with Red Herring now, because people are looking to kill her. As most of the story is coming at us from Maggie's point of view, we know little more than her about what is happening, and revelations are unfolding slowly.
This is a smart, funny, and gorgeous series of the type that was found regularly at Wildstorm a few years ago. I'm glad to see it's being published, and hope that it is successful for them.
