Who is Jake Ellis? is a very cool mini-series. This issue is filled entirely with Jon Moore breaking into the Facility compound that he's finally tracked down. He's doing this because he and Jake Ellis, the voice in his head, are desperate to figure out what was done to them a few years ago. You see, somehow, because of the doctors or scientists at this Facility, Jake exists only as an independent consciousness inside of Jon.
This makes for some very cool scenes, as Jake gives Jon the benefits of having an omniscient narrator who is able to describe and perceive his surroundings in minute detail. Because of this, Jake can advise him of not just when a camera is pointing at him, but also if someone is watching the monitor. The infiltration scenes are very neat, as watch Jon and Jake dance through security, and make their way into the bowels of the Facility, where it looks like they will learn what they've been looking for.
Edmondson imbues this book with taut suspense, and Tonci Zonjic is drawing the hell out of it. His art is stylized and perfect for this book.
