Wow, what a cover. Fire may be trussed up by a hated foe, but look at her face and tell me she's worried. She looks confident and tough, I love it.
Nine issues in, it makes sense that the team needs some sort of confrontation with Max Lord. The problem is, Max's powers don't lead to very satisfying conflicts. He just overrides someone and suddenly the team is just fighting each other. Booster gets in some nice licks, and Fire shows how tough she's become, but once again, the star of the book is the new Rocket Red. This guy is the breakout star of the series for me.
I'm interested to see what's up with Max teaming up with the hero he finds at the end of the issue. Doesn't that go against Max's White Lantern orders?
Fernando Dagnino handles the art, but there are some definite Aaron Lopresti-looking faces in this thing. I was amused at Rocket Red flying around in underwear with only his gloves and boots on. What a hero!
Good
