Hero is back. She’s still hunting down her brother, but claims she’s in it to help him this time. Can she be trusted?

Hero, Yorick's sister, has a change of heart, or does she? What a twist. Great pacing for this comic. It's quick to read but lots of story and kept me engaged. I'm not much of a reader and this is a really good issue.

A great start to the new arc. Hero is back and her character seems to have gone through some changes. Time will tell how much she has changed and if her past catches up with her.
