Desolation Jones #5

Writer: Warren Ellis
Artist: J.H. Williams III
Colors: Jose Villarrubia
Letters: Todd Klein

 


Plot: In this issue of Desolation Jones, Mr. Jones realizes that he may be unraveling a much larger conspiracy than he originally believed. After being shot, he drags his drugged and broken body through the streets to find the person who tried to kill him.

Review: Issue five holds up just as well as the rest of the series. The art adds to the already tense plotline and brings out the grittiness of a growingly tense situation. This is only the fifth issue in the series so it should be pretty easy to find the first four (if you haven’t run out and picked them up already). Go get it. This is a beautiful, tense, thrilling comic and definitely a breath of fresh air.
