This is the seventh book in Season 8 – and its time for a big crazy reveal and a whole lot of plot exposition. The main feature here, which continues the story from the previous volumes, is handled by writer Brad Meltzer and artist Georges Jeanty with Andy Owens and Michelle Madsen on inks and colors. There’s also a Joss Whedon sandwich of sorts, as this volume collects his short intro “Turbulence” and then is backed up by the Willow: Goddesses and Monsters one-shot.
