Wait, who’s saving who here?
MacGyver: Fugitive Gauntlet #5
FINAL ISSUE
Image Comics (February, 2013)
WRITERS: Lee David Zlotoff (series creator)& Tony Lee ARTIST: Will Sliney COLORIST: Owen Jollands LETTERER: Aditya Bidikar COVER ARTISTS: Andie Tong & Ciaran Lucas CONSULTING EDITOR: John Potter
MacGyver is able to get some help in taking down Moscone, as Pasha and Kari have a rather final family reunion. Plus the final story of the origin of the TV series.
What they got right: Everything the previous issues got right. There was a great use of all of the characters, the ending was satisfying, and if they plan on doing more stories I’d get them.
What they got wrong: Pete never appears on-panel, just his voice over the phone. I would have liked to have seen how they’d drawn him. Also, the fights looked a bit stiff, but it didn’t take away from the story.
Recommendation: Fans of the show already have their minds made up about this comic, but for everyone else it is at least worth taking a look at from the beginning.
Gee, I guess he took having a contract on his life to distract him from his friend’s work personally.
