While Devin is living out her dream, working among the greatest minds in the world, the Answer is stuck in a nuthouse nightmare! They'll both have to wake up and work together if they're going to unravel the secrets of the enigmatic BRAIN TRUST.

I love this punctuation-faced superhero. He makes me laugh. The writers are having fun with this guy and it shows. He doesn't seem to have a plan and likes to wing it when it comes to rescuing but he has a snarky attitude and some awesome skills. After three issues we still don’t know anything about him, but we've seen his butt… those damn hospital gowns!

By the end of #3 we still don’t know what the Aperion organization is and why they are collecting smart people. We also don’t know much about The Answer! and his role in all of this. There is only one more issue in this series. Will we find out who The Answer is? Why he wears an exclamation point mask? What evil plot is the Aperion Corporation planning? So many questions….

I recommend this series to anyone who loves campy action comics. I hope there will be more of The Answer! when this mini-series is over.
