this edition isn't nearly as good as the much bulkier, glossier original book edition Rebellion issued in 2009 in marvellous black and white. although the story's okay, this part is really just a minor adventure in the long arc of Halo Jones. the draw(?) of this three-volume set is that it has been colourized, which is actually disappointing as it lessens the impact of Ian Gibson's sharply etched penwork. a better choice would have been for Rebellion to re-print the 2009 version of the whole (absolutely essential) Halo Jones saga.
