At first I thought the duo were bringing us a straight forward Western, gunplay, fast women and cards. I’m a fool.
Josiah Black seems to be having a quiet spell and we even hear a little more about his wife and child and how they died. Cassiopeia Eliades seems a nice enough woman showing an interest in Black. Eliades and her sisters, Lelia and Coralie, run a river boat. Hey, can Black really be going soft?
It’s only in the final few pages that Mr. Caligary’s messenger, Baylocke, delivers instructions for Black’s next mission.
From there on in the action starts. NO SPOILERS!!!
West and Crutchley deliver another great Western …and where is all the publicity it deserves?
