Operation Purge #2
Publisher Lab Rat Publications
By William Brackeen and Patrick David
Review By Sidra Roberts
Let me start off with the statement that its a pure
shame that at current, this comic isnt going to be
published because there wasnt a demand for the
second. I have a photocopy of it. William Brackeen
shows up to Collector Times chat occasionally, you
should come too. I may not be there until later
because of my summer job. I work retail. Ive been
getting assigned to the 5 to 9 shift. The first night
he came on, I got to talking with him about
Operation Purge. Id picked up the first one at my
local comic shop because it looked cool and I needed
something to review.
Issue two of Operation Purge follows the tale and
concepts set up in issue one perfectly. Jasmine Shani
explains her position on the law totem pole, the
bottom. Despite that, she finds a crucial piece of
evidence and then gets yelled at for it. The
vigilantes continue their reign of terror: killing
drug lords and destroying the prison and killing the
people inside.
This issue contains various plot twists, including the
unveiling of the Cardinal and humorous aspects
including the quotation of the theme from Shaft.
Its a solid book with great intrigue. The art
looks a little fuzzy, but thats only because I have a
photocopy of it. The story and the art go hand and
hand, and the story is the perfect follow-up to the
set up last issue. The plot is beginning to
truly unfold and its magnificent. If you can, you
should try to at least pick up issue one of Operation
Purge. The website on the back of issue one, www.purge.net, takes you
to the artists site. Im sure that if you contact
him and tell him you want to buy a copy of issue one
of Operation Purge, hed find a way to make it so.
