Written by Brian K. VaughanArt by Tony Harris
What really makes this comic work for me is that, with all the hell that is breaking loose in Hundred's life, Vaughan still finds some time to squeeze some politics into the story. Suzanne Padilla continues in her plans to wreck havoc in New York, and Mitchell discovers that she has killed someone close to him. At the same time, he gets into an argument with Wylie about their political ambitions.
This comics strength has always been in its balance of superheroics with municipal politics, and as Vaughan moves ever closer to his big finish, it's nice to see that he is not going to be ignoring that aspect of the story.
This is (I think) the second issue where Harris is inking his own art, and it continues to look quite different from his previous work, in a very good way. I don't know if that is contributing to the length of time between issues, but with so little left in the series, I'm okay with it coming out in dribs and drabs, as I'm going to miss this book when it's gone.
