This first Baltimore series finishes very well. These five issues have left us with a well-established character, threat, and environment, and have set the stage for (hopefully) many more stories, but have also told their own story quite well.
With this issue, we get the final pieces of Lord Baltimore's story, as he finishes narrating it to his young companion, and we see him square off against a ton of plague-risen zombies on an island filled with wrecked boats and submarines.
Stenbeck does a great job designing all manners of Victorian diving suits for his zombies to inhabit, and generally gives the comic a terrifically creepy feel. I like that this series is set outside of the Hellboy/BPRD continuity.
