Holo-ween #1 was surprisingly good. And I enjoyed the fact that it’s a not very veiled sequel to Wildstorm’s Embrace the Wolf special from twenty years ago.

Christopher Sequeira is a friend of mine! I am very excited for this mini-series. It is going to be in weekly instalments, so the whole story will have arrived by Halloween!

I have an inkling he added this scene for me!

acclaimed Cyborg writer Morgan Hampton

I have to admit, this confused me a fair bit, until I did some Googling and found out that Cyborg was the title of a comic. The author of the article maybe could have phrased that differently.
