While it's bold to kill off your entire cast in a crossover, the story itself feels super perfunctory. I appreciate the final issue tying off some loose ends (Bendix), but it's sad that they didn't get a less abrupt resolution. When Jenny summarizes the plots of the last few arcs as things growing increasingly beyond Stormwatch's control, it makes sense, but it doesn't really feel like the stories themselves captured that feeling - so it all feels a bit cheap.
