The Rundown: Jack gets brought in for questioning and pays a visit to an enemies home.

In the aftermath of the murder of the man Jack brawled with the night before, the police pay a visit to his family home and bring him in for questioning. After his alibi is established, Jack has to go home and deal with his disappointed parents and the drone following him around.

Jack decides to pay a visit to Hodag’s mother and discovers some interesting things about his hometown arch nemesis. Things that will prompt Jack to investigate the man’s death.

The Story: I continue to be impressed with the dark town of this series and the development of the characters. There are a lot of mysteries at play in this series and I enjoy how Fleecs and Seeley are slowly revealing them as you get to know the character and his struggles. There are some fun elements in the story and I love how the story goes from the series main tale to the elevated memories that reveal the details that we don’t see.

The Art: The art is fantastic and I love the tone and style of both stories. The gritty reality of the main story is perfect and the heightened style of the memories complement each other well.
