In the month when we celebrate our indigenous peoples (like the Cornish or more correctly, Kernowyon) it’s good to see Captain Midnight dealing with those pesky Mayans. More seriously, there’s a nice colour palette used throughout the first story and I like the idea of a diamond magnet (my first girlfriend was one of those). |
