Aaauuuuggghhh why did I buy this. I only picked this up because I swear the solicitation for this series read exactly like Warren Ellis Mad-Libs:

Once upon a time, there were five crazy people, and they poisoned the 21st Century. Now they have to deal with the corrosion to try and save us all from a world becoming too weird to support human life. INJECTION is the new ongoing series created by the acclaimed creative team of Moon Knight. It is science fiction, tales of horror, strange crime fiction, techno-thriller, and ghost story all at the same time. A serialized sequence of graphic novels about how loud and strange the world is getting, about the wild future and the haunted past all crashing into the present day at once, and about five eccentric geniuses dealing with the paranormal and numinous as well as the growing weight of what they did to the planet with the Injection.

But then upon reading I immediately remembered that Warren Ellis stories take four to six months just to get started. This issue isn’t a story. Nothing happens. They spend a few pages throwing around the Warren Ellis buzzword of the day (“cunning man”), and the rest of the pages are devoted to his standard-issue cranky lady who keeps demanding someone give her a sandwich under the erroneous assumption that it gets funnier with repetition.  And with every Warren Ellis comic, there’s always that voice whispering in the back of my head: “Are any of these plotlines going to matter? Is this story going to actually reach a conclusion before Warren Ellis’s attention inevitably wanders over to something else?” Ain’t nobody got time for this.
