One notable aspect that sets Issue #5 apart is its faster pacing, allowing the story to unfold briskly yet satisfyingly. The increased momentum propels the plot forward and keeps readers eagerly flipping through the pages. King's ability to balance plot development and action sequences is commendable, creating an immersive experience that holds the reader's attention from start to finish.

I am a fan of old golden age public domain comics and there are so many people trying to reintroduce old characters to a modern audience, but I feel Scott does it the best.

He can write a good pulpy story while nodding at the original material while updating it for a modern readership.

This continues to be a very plot-driven series where the reader follows along with the story of the 3 main characters. In this book, we learn the secret of one of the character’s pasts and why they are slowly disappearing.

The main villain also seems a bit scarier, but not in a horror way, but in a way that shows us how easily public opinion can be weaponized.

This past week I read issue 3 of Crimebusters by Scott Harris King. He was our guest a few months ago on Episode 47 of Storycomic Presents. He was promoting this comic book back in late November last year.

The first volume set up the world and was heavy with intrigue and court politics, whereas volume two is a magical travel adventure that dives deeper into the world. It ends with more questions than answers.
