The Massive #17

As Ninth Wave's pre-Crash antiwhaling ideology is challenged, so is their very place in these waters, as the crew of the _Kapital_ enters a pitched battle against traditional whalers. Meanwhile, Mary is AWOL at this most crucial time, with no indications that she'll ever come back or any clues to where she's gone. * One of Comic Book Resources' Best Comics of 2012! "Much like _DMZ_, the glimpses of savagery [in _The Massive_] are unsettling because this world isn't as divorced from ours as we'd like it to be."-IGN
