I thought it was about time I dug into another one of these as there are a stack of them on top of the speaker in front of me. 'Forever' was the story of the Powers. In particular the story of Walker and his equally immortal nemesis Wolfe. We see them tangling all the way through time from the Neanderthal origins a la 2001, through some sort of Robert E. Howard hyperborean wet dream into China around the time of the boxer rebellion before it stops briefly in the 1920s / 30s where Walker is making his first tentative steps at heroing and then into present day.It was good fun if a little inconsistent with some of what's gone before but not in any major way.
The art as ever was very nice but I wish he'd sort his layouts out. There're many occasions in each book where you're just not sure whether you're meant to go down the page or across the staples. It does get to be a little frustrating.
