Crickets huh?! I can’t blame y’all, this was just ok, nothing special... :?

I like Roku, but I’m not sure if this was the right creative team. It just feels off... :?

Mirror Universe Medusa starts her own series with zero introduction or characterization. Just a generically written heist movie style plot. And while I am usually a Bachs fan, not on this issue.

I enjoyed the first issue enough. I'm a huge fan of the character. One of my favorites of the new ones. I was lucky enough to just buy the cover art for the A cover. I've been a Johnson fan for some time and loved his Ninjak covers. This one is pretty great too, and it's very different than the final version. I'll post the differences when I get it in the mail.

Just read this today. Mostly setup I thought. It's okay but not amazing so far.
If you're not a *SQUEE*, you're okay with me.
