It’s not the most famous comic series this one nor the best out there but it’s coming to an end and that’s something (possibly anyway because DC is reconsidering 5 more issues after an organized fan’s reaction). The title seemed to enjoy great success but it never lasted long, every few months the sales would go down and DC would program its finale, every time postponing it for a little longer. Is this the final goodbye to Kate Spencer? The following months will show.

Kate Spencer is a lawyer, one of the best there are, but frustrated by the inability of the law system to apply justice she becomes a masked vigilante, the Manhunter. Using gadgets other heroes left behind (like Batman) she gains super strength, agility and resistance to injuries in her fight against crime, she hunts them down and finishes them off

before they have the chance to bypass the corrupted system and roam the streets again. In her struggle she has to fight not only the organized crime but also all those traditional heroes that consider her a threat because of her harsh ways and killer instincts.

In issue #30 after the end of Wonder Woman’s trial (where she was responsible for her defense) for murder, Manhunter finds herself in crossroads, having accomplished everything on Earth she looks at the stars to find a new purpose. This might be the end, a short revival for one more story arc or a new beginning if it goes well, can’t say I’m thrilled but I’ll get at least this one issue and I’ll be here to share impressions!
