Danger lurks around every corner of Wag’s post-technology world, and just as his memory of what befell civilization is coming back, tragedy strikes.

This was an incredibly eventful and emotional issue, packed full of insight as to what happened to the world, and to Wag himself. Though not everything is clearly spelled out, enough pieces of the puzzle are given to the reader that it can be put together, somewhat, or at least interpreted in their own way.

One thing’s for sure, and that’s the fact that bubbling up from beneath the surface is a damning indictment of our current society and political situations across the world, not just America.

Given the symbolism of the colourful birds, I’d had a certain social media platform’s descent into misinformation and toxicity in mind from the start, and I think that was almost certainly intentional on the part of writer Scott Hoffman and artist Juan Bobillo.

This is the penultimate issue, and I’m not expecting everything to be neatly wrapped up by the end of the series. But it’s a story that’s already lingering in the mind; it’s melancholy and heartfelt, as well as very politically motivated, if (like Wag himself, perhaps) your mind is open to reading it on that frequency.
