Episode 55: “Fantastic Flight!”
We continue Nicieza’s run this episode with a really solid-to-excellent two issue arc featuring possibly one of the worst (as in creepy/evil/bad-in-so-many-ways) villains Alpha has encountered…so far. Headlok is…unpleasant and we dig into the content warning we offered last issue right from jump. Thankfully there are adults in the room, courtesy of the Fantastic Four!
But! It’s a really effective arc and, frankly, really nice to just have a contained two-parter that tells its story while pushing the larger narratives forward. Who knew competence could feel this good?!
