The Five Nations (67-72). DMZ showed us a transformed New York City. "Five Nations" now shows us how that city has been transformed again, then the "Epilogue" tells us that things continue to change. It's a nice statement about a city that constantly changes, but stays itself (but it's also a bit too much, with a real lack of action in the first half of this arc). 
 As for Matty: I have no problems with his final fate. I agree with Wood that he became a villain in his own story. I do have a problem with his final decisions however. He chose loyalty over professionalism. Sure, he ended a war and saved many lives, but he only did so by betraying his occupation, by accepting propaganda over truth. It's a believable response, but it's also a sour note that feels like a betrayal of the reader. I'm not left hating the series, but I am left disappointed and thoughtful [6/10].
