Incorruptible Volume 5 created and written by Mark Waid and art by Marcio Takara
Max Damage continues his campaign to be a hero as the citizens of Coalville try to get back to a normal life. Max's past actions and allies come back to haunt him. He tries to recruit a district attorney to lead the city but he did something exceptionally horrible to the DA's family. The DA is not convinced. A group of villains is forming up to create their own rules for Coalville. They try to recruit Max but he is not convinced. And there might be a sinister plot behind everything that's happening.
The forward momentum of the story slows to a crawl as the comic seems to shift to more character development. Unfortunately, they are not doing a good job developing the characters, so the story is less interesting. I haven't completely lost my interest but the series is skating on thin ice. Happily, the art has shifted away from the exploitative depiction of women.
Mildly recommended.
