The story

He is a member of one gang and she is from another, and al hell breaks loose when his gang finds out that hes sleepin with the enemy. The two lovers are almost torn apart when it is revealed that he was responsible for her brothers death years before. In the end Starbearer saves them and their love with his unearthly powers and his heartfelt words of wisdom.

My Reveiw


......"Better hide your heart" when reading this issue cause its all about love this time. I really liked this issue, I thought it had an original story line, and a very erie Ironic twist near the end, I mean who would have thought Devon murdered Karas brother! That "shocked Me".
......This issue was definatly a Starbearer / Stanley focused issue, we dont see much of the others in this one.
...... I really enjoyed this issue, not only for its story and characters, but I liked all the hidden kiss references in there. An awesome comic yet again.(for more info about the hidden kiss references, see My "Hidden KISS" contest page, maybee you will win)

The art


......This is by far my favorite as far as art goes. Awesome stuff. The cover is the best yet. Also I noticed that The psycho circus figures and the comic are starting to look more alike. See Pauls costume on the cover, and also on page 18 see Paul and also Peters shoulders, also see Pauls sword on page 19.
...... My fave art in this one is Paul on page 18, page 11, and Also the centerfold type pages 16 and 17. Great stuff.
