The story vehicle this chapter, USAgent and Iron Man literally recap the same story. 'Not that there's anything wrong with that' - but not after 3 other instances of deja vu (not to mention every Dr Benning session so far). Now the fan fun with rearranging some words, again, to see how I might've enjoyed the issue moreso.
Page 1.
As is... have OFTEN visited the beautiful Falls and this was an admirable artistic rendering indeed!. IM's vertically parting the curtain of water, midair, seemed odd - maybe the little angle expected is just a perspective thing.
Page 2.
Tony's part is still odd in this. Can't really edit anything he says not understanding his 'skrull war' status or minimal access to Pointer.
Page 3.
For a psychiatrist analyzing her patient, Benning sure does talk a lot. Accept it as part of her character but just noting it. Am tempted to take out the part where Pointer talks about helping Rachel only because OTTOMH it was the other way around.
Page 4.
This whole page was boring. On and on about if the voices were in or out of the suit. Maybe a MEANWHILE page spotlighting Sasquatch or Talisman in some capacity wouldve been more interesting.
Page 5.
As is... Really smiled at the Rap-Tore impersonation. :D
Page 6.
Get rid of his looking at his wristband(over his guantlet?) or AT LEAST the 'he's outta range'. Is Walker trying to out spy the current spy king? With tech ot out-tech Tony's? Or is he looking at a real watch timing when he should be out of range(with no visual confirmation)?! SHeesh. Or have Shroud bring her out of the Darkforce with more FX if they want to have readers KNOW he was hiding in the pseudo-sciencitic Darkforce and IM has the terrible scanning functions. Even though buying the story for more CANADIAN content, it's neat to see his guest appearance to help out Julia - NO reason why they can't just get into see Pointer at their leisure know - however unlikely that is planned.
Page 7.
Note, didnt praise the refreshing unique water thunder effect all story 'cuz on the other hand shouting' aint the best plan for clandestine meetings. Page gives credit to Julia as capable of evading Brown and Walker surveillance and motherly concern. Page gives credit to USAgent with his offer to share and refrain from predictable jealousy comments.
Page 8.
GET that reverant/symbolic costume off the floor. Have a spy camera whirring in the corner reinforcing the fact Brown is watching Pointer. No idea the intent with Rachel here but it looks like a casual visit - this seem ludicrous! Walker stymied a meeting with him but she can just walk up and knock at the door? ASAP should comment on this unexplained security clearance as she had in the Omega Flight series.
