Mind the Gap #10 – Review

The Story: In which you finally discover what’s behind Eddie’s wine cabinet.

The Review: While this series hasn’t been as purposely or exasperatingly obscure as, say, Morning Glories, no one can deny that in terms of the story’s direction, we’ve spent a long time feeling around half-blindly in the dark.  The moment that Elle leaped into her first comatose body, we knew that this couldn’t be your typical whodunit, but we couldn’t know whether this development was a product of science-fiction, spiritualism, or magic.

While I can’t say this issue necessarily answers that particular question, it does reveal a great deal of long-withheld information that shows that McCann is finally leading us toward some real answers.  In comparison to the glacial pace of development from the past nine issues, it’s almost alarming how many revelations we get in succession here.  To properly discuss them, I believe a blanket spoiler alert for the whole issue is necessary.  Read on at your own risk.
