So the main character’s name is Rebel, which explains the Confederate flag on the side of the van. It doesn’t however, explain the Swastika on the top of the van. It doesn’t really seem to be the kind of thing that Rebel’s crew would paint on their vehicles. Perhaps we’re meant to believe that the Skinhead gang who attacked the van took the time to paint and outline it in addition to writing their looser graffiti? It’s not clear why they would do that, exactly. Do they have someone who carries around a stencil so they can do this when they hit vehicles? It raises some questions, is what I’m saying.

On the art front, Moreno repeats the trick on the bottom tier that he used earlier in the story – the weapon extends across multiple panels, while the effects stay inside the panel borders.
