What are Adam Strange's crimes?
The investigation against the Strange family continues but just while Alanna believes in their own case, it turns out that Adam might be keeping some secrets from her.
The plot is progressing all right but not without issues.
Tom King brings a new installment where he explores the truth behind this Adam's actions in the war. This chapter in particular plays with the esoteric angle of the sci-fi nature of the title due to the many hallucination scenes that Adam has to endure in the past, all of this is connected to the present of course, particularly because of an important conversation between Alanna and him, a conversation that most certainly will be more relevant in upcoming issues. King is playing with a much more complex scenario just as everyone suspected, a situation where there aren't innocents.
Then again, we sadly see the re-appearance of King's awkward dialogue. Especially with the introduction of a stereotypical hippie/junkie character that speaks as predictably as expected (It reminded me when King portrayed Hal Jordan as a kid with all the "I'm like, like, like..."), not to mention that such repetition is also extends to the main characters with lines that try to sound profound but they're just reiterative.
Mitch Gerads and Doc Shaner continue to shine in art duties. Gerads handling wonderfully the real conversations while Shaner creates pretty creative drug inducing scenes.
Decent overall but I hope the next one is more polished.
