Really nice art from Pere Pérez. Probably the most consistently good art Harbinger has had so far.
On to the story. While Dysart certainly left the cast in dire straits last issue, this issue he plays out the worst possible scenario. Not a lot of character moments–I don’t think Flamingo even has any lines–except for Faith. Well, Kris gets a good moment, but it’s Faith’s issue.
One has to wonder if Dysart plotted the whole thing to get to that result–Faith as the series’s protagonist. He does the standard hero white guy, with a cute geeky girl, a stripper (it’s still a superhero comic book after all), but the real center of the comic is Faith. The overweight nerd.
Dysart doesn’t spend an eighth as much time on anyone but Kris. She and Faith run Harbinger… to great result too.
It’s utterly fantastic work, start to finish.
