This is by far the best issue of this series so far, really loved all the conversations the side characters were having as they reflected on what happened, especially the one between the two guys in the storage room, that felt insanely real and relatable to me. The art felt like it took a huge step up this issue too, especially the layouts, stuff like that two page spread with the body in the middle just blew me away.

The dialogues in this issue regarding racism are very well written and thought-provoking.

The sequence where Aisha's neighbors are discussing the incident, the bombing, and racism is so real. This issue perfectly encapsulates the cloud of scrutiny and gossip that envelopes any tragedy. And, because apparently I can't say it enough with this series: THAT LAST PAGE.

Third time is a charm

This issue let’s the secondary characters take center stage to great effect....we learn more about our “protagonist “ than we would spending time with her. This is when our own perspectives get turned on their head. Good stuff!
