Some thoughts about Forever Evil: A.R.G.U.S. #5

Steve Trevor and Killer Frost will have to work together if they want to survive the attack of Wonder Woman's nemesis.

The Cheetah has been recluting creatures similar to her so she can use them for her plans and Steve will have to face the power of the Lasso of Truth to save himself. However, even if he defeats Cheetah it doesn't mean that his problems will be over.

I have no doubts that this is the best issue yet from this highly underrated series. Sterling Gates has found a way to finally give Steve Trevor some respect after being considered simply Wonder Woman's boyfriend for so long, the battle between Cheetah and him was especially great and the outcome made perfect sense based on the logic of the lasso of truth.

However, the best aspect for me has been the worldbuilding so far. From the exploration about the secret organization of the Crimson Men to the new army of the Cheetha, Gates has been a pretty admirable job at expanding the universe.

I have a nitpick though. I found a bit strange how Steve was able to knock out Cheetah with a punch considering her power level, but that could be due the influence of the Lasso of truth.

Neil Edwards delivers some of his best artwork in this series. It actually looks much more refined and at times it was quite beautiful-

The best I've seen so far from this creative team. I wish we would get an A.R.G.U.S. series with Gates in charge.
