Once and Future #21 is overflowing with goodness. We get to meet Rose‘s parents, who our heroes set-out to rescue. There’s also a Gorgon turning everyone to stone and a knight of the new Arthur who Bridgette wants nothing to do with. Our intrepid heroes makeshift plans to deal with the Gorgon are terrific. First with tin foil, and later playing on the knight’s virtues to force the pair of obstacles into battling each other instead of them.
Along the way there’s also plenty of fun banter as Duncan finds himself quite outnumbered by those who know more about legends and myths. After rescuing Rose’s parents and seeing them to shelter, our heroes set out again alone to keep the others safe and hopefully not attract either Arthur’s attention. But in a world turned upside down by magic and myths brought to life, is any place truly safe?
