The 'cat and mouse' game of finding Hope, losing Hope, and finding it again is sounding more of a bad metaphor than an actual good story line. Im not a big fan of her inconsistent looks as a growing child. One moment she looks like a young teenage adolescent (such as covers) and the next she looks like and 18 year old (in the comic pages) . . . then she acts as if shes still 10 . . . its very confusing to determine how old she really is.
