And Then I Read: UNFOLLOW #17

Image © DC Comics.

The penultimate issue of this series begins with Larry Ferrell, not dead as many supposed, and now deciding he doesn’t want to give away any of his billions after all, thereby negating the entire Unfollow scheme that has upended the lives of many, and ended lots of them. Meanwhile, in a South American jungle, some of the few surviving Unfollowers are fighting and killing each other for what now seems no good reason (though they may not know it yet). As Ferrell sends hired killers after the rest, the number of survivors dwindles still further. The characters and writing are still compelling, the plot is a page turner, but the story is not much fun. The next issue will be the last. I’ll be reading it soon.
