There have been accusations he's fallen short while I've been away. This city cannot function with a lost hero.
I've always been fascinated by the relationship dynamics between nemesis, and this comic is built entirely around that: the balance, the adversity, the co-dependence between a hero and a villain, mostly from the villain's point of view. I suppose it was impossible for me not to like it, despite all the confusion within the plot. It took me a very long time to figure out how the two plots—the villain returning to make sure the hero's doing his job and the boy growing up in a broken home—actually fit together. :) Overall, this was an engaging read with great art.
