[.ca] Wildcats VOL 03: Serial Boxes (ISBN 1563897660)

Joe Casey's brilliant character study continues:
What do you do when your life as you knew it is over, and you never bothered to plan for the future? The WildCATS were a black-ops superhero team formed to fight in a secret war. The war is over. Joe Casey's entire run on volume 2 of WildCATS was about people trying to find the answer to the question "now what do I do?" Granted, the title of the story arc this volume collects, "Serial Boxes" is about how the lives of the remaining team members, quite through accident, become tragically intertwined with a serial killer on a spree. Yet, threaded through the action, and equally important to the story and its outcome are the deftly handled character studies of the remaining team members, most of whom have gone their separate ways. What would you do to try and fill the emptiness now that what you thought would be your purpose in life has vanished? Would you try to buy happiness with an endless shopping spree? Could you shut the pain out through single minded dedication to a pet project/hobby? How about a job you take on because you don't quite know what else to do, even if you don't particularly like it, or the people you work with? And what about the people with whom you fought the war? What if you don't really have much in common with most of them, but who else can you talk to? Who else understands the extraordinary adventures you've been through? Part tale of betrayal, part action movie, part soap opera, Serial Boxes is a skillfully written and beautifully drawn tale of people trying to pick up the pieces and move on.
