Cutter cuts loose! (Sorry, I had to.)
The confrontation between Ethan and Cutter comes to a head in the infirmary and Ethan manages to regain control of his spirit form in time to save the day. Cutter isn't dead, and appears to have some kind of understanding that Ethan is operating on another plane.
And that's it. The series ends. There's a coda issue tomorrow, but that's really all we have of what could have been a really great series. And I feel like so many things written about Mr. Gerber's writing echo that sentiment. His wonderful stories had this propensity to get cut short. I still contend that it's because he writes stories that are well ahead of their time. Give this one another 14 years, and we'll start looking at it the way we look at Howard and Man-Thing, brilliant prescient works.
One last visit with Ethan tomorrow. More to follow.
