Rose and Thorn #5

Jun 2004 · DC · 2.95 USD; 4.50 CAD
“Fields of Gold”

In "Fields of Gold," Gail Simone and Adriana Melo deliver a tense, character-driven chapter as Rose grapples with the fallout of her past. When Ashleigh arrives unannounced, the fragile balance between Rose and Thorn shatters—especially as memories of her mother’s life begin to surface, pointing toward her godfather Curtis and the mysterious 100. With Chritlow closing in and Thorn determined to reach the truth, the line between protector and avenger grows dangerously thin. Adam Hughes' striking cover captures the storm brewing beneath the surface.

Discussing with Chritlow the professional trouble they are in, Howlett is paid a visit by Ashleigh. Thorn cuts through the 100 trying to get to the top and her parents' killers. Thorn makes Rose remember details of her mother's life that is linked to her godfather, Curtis, and his possible involvement with the 100. Chritlow gets in touch with Rose and attempts to lock Thorn away forever just as Ashleigh shows up to face down her old adversary.
