Comments & Additional Info
The Death of Jean DeWolff is considered one of the best story arcs written by Peter David, as it realistically portrays a serial killer and psychopath who won’t stop until every person he deems a "sinner" is exterminated. I also believe this is the first time a ruthless villain is shown shooting into a crowd with a shotgun... Simply terrifying.
