There's something delightful about the cover to this issue, although you'd think they'd have used it on an issue that included that character in more than four panels. Oh well.This issue clears up the reason the series has the word "Dallas" in the title, and we learn some more about the mysterious killer known as Number Five.
This comic, more than any other in recent memory, has an amazing number of surprising twists in each issue. Characters who seem to die might not be dead, others who seem to be alive might be fooling you, and assassins may send their most unexpected agent after... well, that would be telling.
The high-energy art by Gabriel Ba, as always, is a perfect compliment to Gerard Way's well-crafted story.
The violence herein might be a bit much for young readers, but the story is a fast-paced delight, with lots of clever bits for those who are paying attention.
As always, highly recommended.
Grade: A-
