This issue actually reads a little bit like how I imagine the pilot of Heroes would've run if it was on HBO. And I definitely mean that as a compliment. It starts off as a good character study, showing a young woman dealing with the grief of losing her father and the odd sort of surreal trappings that come in times of transition. It feels raw and real in a very nice way, then in the last few beats of the story it takes a sudden (but not unearned) twist into something altogether different: a sort of dysfunctional family superhero tale.
