I thought the first issue in this series was great, but the second is excellent. It's so cynical and bitter - and cynicism and bitterness don't make things excellent in themselves, which is a mistake a lot of authors make as far as I'm concerned. Here, though, it's born out of observation and repeated history. Frankenstein's creature, wandering the wilderness, has developed such a loathing of humanity that he'll slaughter anyone, and he's mirrored by those yokel brutes patrolling the border wall for their chance at murder. Even the more sympathetic adults are compromised in multiple ways, and it's hard to read and think that anyone's going to get a happy ending here.
