She expects death because of her complicity in the horror she has contributed in these animals’ lives, saying, “Kill me. Berry, because she shows them tenderness, is spared as they exit the facility.
As they escape, they do what they were trained and controlled to do: wreak havoc on those who would harm them. Berry refuses to do this and purposefully lets the animals escape the Air Force facility in which they are housed. They have lost their usefulness to the government. After their most recent mission, the government tells the animals’ handler, Roseanne Berry, that the animals must be “decommissioned” to make way for new generation of modified animals. They are “living weapons” that are remote controlled using implants in their brains. These animals are used as weapons, and are described as “animal slaves” who are exploited to save the lives of human soldiers. Morrison, in interviews, has said he wanted to make a classic animal story that makes people cry – “Disney with fangs.” He and Quitely (along with colorist and digital inker Jamie Grant) have succeeded in that mission, telling a story about three animals – a dog, a cat, and a rabbit (otherwise known to their oppressors as simply 1, 2, and 3) – who are part of a United States Air Force project called WE3 that goes on clandestine military missions in high-tech clunky suits of machinery decked out with weaponry to kill American enemies. Writer Grant Morrison and artist Frank Quitely have created a book that will bring tears to readers’ eyes.
