Written by Mike Mignola and John ArcudiArt by Guy Davis
The first issue of Gods barely had any of the Bureau in it, except for the last page, as it instead introduced Fenix, a young girl leading a nomadic group of people across Texas, always steering them away from danger.
This issue shows us what put the Bureau on her tail, as the UN guy (I have no idea what his name is) debriefs the team on the growing number of these nomadic 'Bedouins' and makes a plan to track down Fenix for further study. Their briefing gets interrupted by crazy old Professor O'Donnell, who has some ideas about how the current situation in the world is connected to the post-Hyperborean age, which has haunted the Mignola-verse for a while now.
Most interesting though is the scene where Abe Sapien and Agent Devon finally discuss Devon's suspicions of Abe. I've been a huge fan of the character of Kate Corrigan, and like the way she handled this little problem that has been brewing for a while now.
It's nice to see Davis get a chance to cut loose on the art in the flashback sequence, although I would have liked to have seen some space given to Johann and Panya, as they're both up to something lately.
