“The ‘Great Machine’ was nothing but a burdened White paternalist who thought he could swoop down out of the heavens to save the helpless people of the ghetto.”
We’re into the home stretch as this week, Mike and Alex dive right into Ex Machina Deluxe Volume 4 (issues #30-40) by Brian K. Vaughan and Tony Harris. The guys work their way through the two major story arcs in this volume and discuss why those arcs worked for them and how they rank those stories in the overall run thus far. Then they take a look at the one-shot, stand-alone stories contained in this run of issues and break down why those worked less well for them. Finally, guys close by breaking down the most meta of meta issues, Ex Machina #40.
There’s just one collection left to discuss in this season of Stories Arcs, so find Ex Machina Deluxe Volume 5 (issues #41-50 plus Special #4) wherever you get your comics and join us back here again next week to close out another great comic!
