100 Bullets, Vol. 5: The Counterfifth Detective by Eduardo Risso, Brian Azzarello
3.0

When a Private Eye Detective gets deep into the world of a 100 bullets.

While it's still not a 4 star again, this is a stronger volume than the last. Our main character, the detective, is interesting enough to carry a six part storyline. I will say I enjoyed the actual mystery but I called the betrayal from a mile away. It was so easy to see. However, the shocking ending is a nice surprise, and reminded me of how brutal this series can get.

I do miss the simple tales, the 100 bullets case tales, because they created situations I was intrigued by on top of having a cool backstory to it all. I hope we get back to that eventually. A 3.5 out of 5.
