  This comic just keeps getting better and better, both the story and the art.

  The first issue of Destroyer was all promise, with it's compelling and timely premise and gorgeous artwork. Issues 2 and 3 deliver on a lot of that promise. There's a lot more action in these issues as well as a lot more depth of feeling as we delve into the real meat of the story. The literary allusions are a little on the nose, especially in a work that's a little too serious to fall under the category of pastiche, but as the story gets darker I find these humorous nods to the book's inspirations to be a welcome bit of lightheartedness. Also, and probably because I'm not a great reader of comic books, my favorite thing about this series so far is Victor LaValle's essay at the end of Issue 3 where he writes about how the two different endings of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein led him to write this comic.

  The climax of the book is starting to happen. I feel like an evil scientist as well listening to Josephine (Akai’s Mother) talk about Grief as a driving force of everything, yet I think it can also be called LOVE.

  We can figure out that Frankenstein's monster is a monster, but is Dr. Baker's son one as well? Or the spies chasing Dr. Baker and her reborn son? Who is the Bride? Big showdown coming on.

  Simply beautiful and so on point with the current events that it is scary! These four issues are just the beginning though. I hope it continues to be this awesome. Here are some scenes for you to feast your eyes on:
