This comic just keeps getting cooler with each new issue. We've been watching Drake Sinclair and his friends keep themselves busy in New Orleans while Drake's been trying to figure out their next move, although now it seems that some of the problems they've been anticipating have come looking for them.
The servant from the swamp last issue brings a number of swamp creatures to the hotel where our heroes are staying to attack Drake and try to get the guns from him. This leads to a very cool trio of intertwined action series, featuring Drake fighting a panther, Gord a flock of owls, and Becky fights off a giant snake while soaking naked in a bathtub (it's not as anime-lascivious as it sounds though).
As well, we get a surprise betrayal, and some more information on the vault last seen in the Maw, where Drake met Gord and fought the General in the first story arc. Bunn is setting up a pretty big story here, and I like the idea of there being six books that will be able to help everyone understand the powers of the guns.
Brian Hurtt is doing the best work of his career on this title, perfectly complimented by Bill Crabtree's colours.
