Alters #8

Plot

Chalice has successfully convinced the newest Alter to join the Gateway Army but the decision has come at a severe cost: a group of altered anarchists has taken the very thing that our new Alter prizes the most, her oldest child. And as Chalice tries to work through her feelings of guilt and frustration to save the child, inspiration comes from the least likely source possible… at the ultimate price.

“In essence, any superhero comic where the hero has a secret identity, can be seen as a metaphor for identity issues. However, Alters ramps this metaphor up to eleven.”
