On a crappier note, DC Comics' June solicitations also revealed that issue #18 of The Silencer (2018) will be the series' last. Dan Abnett and John Romita, Jr. introduced us to this bad-ass, female-led action title, which was tangentially connected to the worlds of both Batman and Deathstroke, that was a very welcome addition to my monthly pull-list. I thoroughly enjoyed this title and sincerely hope that DC has a plan of some kind to continue the exploits of Honor Guest. Damn!
