This week, the final full thrust of Furman's arc kicks off. Not that anyone knew it was the final full thrust at the time. It's the world's worst detective and a Russian Kitty as I look at Devastation Issue 1!

Hurrah! Back to the main story at last! Whilst you're right in that this is a touch bitty and disjointed, to me that works (and indeed worked at the time) in that it gave the idea of lots of things that were happening all over the world that were about to somehow come together in some sort of... shall we say "devastating"... way. For me it certainly gives the issue a sense of urgency and tension. Although I will agree that the Ravage reveal sequence hearkened back to the worst of the Dreamwave stylistic excesses, and should have been a single page at most.

I also meant to add that I really like Hot Rod's new alt mode, and did at the time, too. It really works for him. Even if it's somewhat ironic that his original "futuristic sports car" look that was originally designed for the space year 2005 didn't look at all right when we reached the very ordinary year 2007. But yeah, it's a good look.

The cliffhanger is definitely a some lessons have been learnt thing.
