Using her swiftly developing powers she unravels the mystery of her missing team-mates, how the pernicious plans of the mystery villain managed to defeat both heroes and governments and just why she is the only \u00e2\u20ac\u0153person\u00e2\u20ac\u009d who can deal with this particular crisis<\/p>\n On its own terms this is quite an engrossing adventure, full of the nihilism and ironic dark sparkle that typified the earlier tales, but if you look closely you can’t fail to see that under all that realistic language and powerful, cutting edge art are all the tired old clich\u00c3\u00a9s of the super-hero genre that this title initially rejected and often mocked.
