The First Battle of the Crosswalk
The story opens with The Pedestrian showing up to stand up to the evil that has surrounded our friends. As The Pedestrian gets to work on taking the fight to the evildoers, the detective pulls her gun to help, only for our hero to motion the gun away. Instead, the crossing guard hands out street signs, but these aren’t ordinary street signs they have powers. Now the forces of good are taking it to the evildoers. That is until the master of the evil ones enters the mind of Kira giving her doubts, along with one of the young boys.

The evil one’s retreat, as our heroes enter the light of the crosswalk to repair themselves and reveal the hero in them all. Unfortunately for our heroes the evil side starts to regroup in the shadows, and is preparing for the next run in.
Good Wins the Day…For Now
The Pedestrian #4 puts a bow on the awesome opening arc for this new age hero story. Joey Esposito has crafted an unusual, yet original and refreshing story. In a world where our superheroes meld together, The Pedestrian is completely unique. Every issue and every panel bring something fresh to the genre and for that reason this book is justifiably mesmerizing.
The writing isn’t the only thing that is mesmerizing in this book, as the art brings the heat as well. Sean Von Gorman went with an art style that encapsulates this world completely, well bringing a fresh take on action sequences as well. The colors by Josh Jensen match the mood and vibe of the story flawlessly, well the lettering by Shawn Lee conveys the story perfectly.
