When Alan Moore was crap (Deathblow: Byblows, Part 2)
And here's the second half of the mini-series that introduced Moore's new Deathblow to the Wildstorm universe.
To recap, a bunch of people, all with the last name Cray, find themselves waking up on an alien planet. None of them have any memories of a previous life.
The little kid Cray leads Geneveive to the empty town he found so that she can get some clothes.
In town, they have run-ins with a Cray who's a teenager (I think. It's not too clear) and the cyborg Cray again. The teen runs away, while the cyborg is knocked out.
She chases after him. Just as she has him cornered though, someone comes up behind her.
The two find some decapitated heads.
Judgment Cray wants to add their heads to his collection, and he's too powerful for them to take on, so they run for it.
Caleb gets killed. Still being hunted, Geneveive flees through the PEPCO man-hole thing we saw earlier.
She gets into a skirmish with security guards, during which Judgment shows up.
Not sure what just happened there. Not sure what the liquid is, but how dangerous can it be if it's being pumped into the clone tanks?
Geneveive escapes the facility. It turns out to be underground and to lead to a walled-up construction site on the surface.
Okay, I do like the ending, on these last two pages here. If they had happened at the beginning of the mini-series or at the end of the first issue, it would have made for a much better story, I think
Oddly, there's never any explanation for why Geneveive experiences the original Deathblow's memories in her sleep.
