The Rundown: Huck returns to solve a mystery while dealing with a personal heartache.
Anna receives a visitor in the middle of the night while dreaming of an encounter from her youth that changed her life forever. As she confronts the man and hears his story of being rescued by someone with powers, he asks for help from her son Huck. At the same time, Huck has traveled out to sea in order to help a group of stranded sailors and is excited to get back home to his new girlfriend Zoe.
Unfortunately, Huck gets some bad news regarding Zoe and her future and after returning home, he is implored to help the man with his mother find a missing woman. A missing woman that could be connected to other people with powers.
The Story: Millar brings back Huck in an engaging, sweet and entertaining story. I love the lore of this story and how interesting the tone and characters are. The issue sets up some great relationship dynamics as well as an intriguing mystery that grabbed my attention throughout the issue. I look forward to seeing where this story goes next.
The Art: Albuquerque delivers fantastic art throughout the issue. The imagery brilliantly captures the tone and mood of the story while also enhancing the emotional moments for the characters.
