Re: X-O Manowar [2017] #21 Discussion
Outstanding issue! What a great arc!
I thought it was interesting that the Unknown Police Patrol referred to eliminating agitants as an "editorial strike-through" and the Divinity issues are heavily reliant on references to books and literature. I wonder if that's not a coincidence.

I'll grant you that the plot didn't advance all that much. But we progressed to the square off with David Camp (aka The Cartographer), saw the Unknown cops get involved, some action and a meteor strike. I like the way Kindt is amping up Camp's character, he's becoming a better villain.Dallow Spicer1 wrote:Maybe I need to read it again, didn’t feel like much happened
I'll spot OTV the butterfly thing, but I think the bear wearing a loincloth was even sillier. I guess we're supposed to think of him more as a character than simply a huge, conjured bear.
But I'm enjoying the action, plot and characterization overall.

I’m glad we’re revisiting all of these characters but somethings not quite clicking for me with this arc.

I enjoyed this issue. I liked the art #1 the police things are weirdly out of place. The unkown was suposed to be this weird place but it just seems like another world now. And I thought the guy who kept everything on course was the main person doesnt seem so weird if they have a galactic police force. I wonder if this whole story isnt a mcguffin to allow whats her face to steal the drive from the ship. Kinda weird she would know where it is. Is able to take it out with out the ship falling to the ground and able to handle it and pack it away without anyone knowing or alarm bells around the ship going off.
Im sure if you stole the drive from the enterprise a bell or 2 would be going.
After listening to the pod cast the butterflies where a cheesy fight I glazed over. The bear was stupid. It falling on xo and a little noise coming out of him was stupid. Ive seen xo toss cars.
The metor was out of left felid unexpected and wtf. If a metor did that they would all have been killed. Im interested to see how they explain why a damaged xo an Aric with out a helmet lived. Not to mention everyone else.
