Nights #13
Nights #13 takes us back into the past of Agent Tsukumari and his job culling magic from the world including an interlude overseas with a witch that left him scarred him but which also leads him to Las Vegas and his first run-in with Gray on a night when what I believe were salamanders rained from the sky.
Labeled as a season premiere, the jump back to the 1970s feels a bit jarring to begin with but opens up possibilities for characters and events teased over the first dozen issues of the comic to be explored from a new direction. We certainly learn how ruthless Chimera was back in the day with regards to anyone or anything magic (although we get a tease of Tsukumari being far more open to the idea as a child). The idea of an "item" the character is obsessed with is an interesting new tease. Just what exactly is Tsukumari hunting? And is it related at all to the events of Gray's future? I guess we'll have to wait and see.
