I'm a little behind from last week, and have yet to nab this week's pile. Lot's going on. But not as much as the events within BPRD The Black Goddess #5. There's been massive conflict going down in the past 2 issues what with flame dragons, nasty frog legions, and the creepy underground critters and their martian walker-like machines all going at each other at once.After lots of talking to Gilfryd by the BPRD team about how Liz and himself are the only way to save humanity and blah blah blah, our man of action Johann finally shows up after shankin' some dude, then busts in to the inner chambers where Liz is being held, and starts blastin' ol' Gilfryd. Of course this doesn't work very well, seeing as Abe tried that nonsense a few moments earlier. But Johann has of late been a bit impulsive and loosey-goosey. And maybe now we know why.
Johann at least tried to do something. The rest of them were trying he old talk 'em to death route. Anyways, he was rewarded with a Jedi-like force pummeling, that cracked his bubble suit. Which is trouble for our ecoplasmic buddy. But a panel or so later, it appears that he finds a way to keep on truckin' - in the shoes of Lobster Johnson. Though the name is ridicuous, Lobster Johnson is awesome. But only Hellboy knows about him for the most part. (Abe did some research, but that's about it. I think.) So, I couldn't be happier and more eager to see where this final arc goes. However there's lots of filler issues coming up and I think the next arc doesn't begin for awhiles. Oh well.
