6. The Wild Hunt

Writer: Bill Willingham
Artist: Cory Walker

Well, we're moving right along with this arc, folks.

Some sort of mysterious baddie is apparently siccing random villains on Shadowpact. The previous issue had that anti-climactic fight with the moon-lady. This time, the Wild Huntsman attacks Ragman and The Enchantress right after they’ve arrested his cohort.

After he defeats them, he clips his dog collars around their necks and turns them into giant monster dogs. Nightshade and Blue Devil then appear and fight off The Huntsman. Once that’s done, they don't know what to do with their new dog-teammates.

This issue is stronger than the preceding ones in a number of ways. I prefer Scott's art a bit, but Walker is absolutely no slouch.

One thing that I’ve been forgetting to mention is that the humor is starting to click for me. About once an issue, there's a joke I like. That's good. Also, the few pages between Eddie and Nightmaster are good, even though it plays into the Shadowpact tradition of making side characters more interesting and fleshed-out than the main cast.
