A little more sparseness on the dialogue doesn't stop this series from continuing to be an engrossing read, as the pictures do the talking. There is an air of ominousness from the opening panels that follows the characters throughout this arc. Focusing on some of the characters introduced earlier in the series shakes things up a bit, but i do admit to missing Dashiel's character, who seemingly disappears for awhile (though considering the direction his character takes, it is appropriate from a pacing and chronology perspective). Continuously gritty with a great intro that rightly connects the comic to its noir roots.
4 1/2 stars out of 5
