Man, I’ve been pretty easy on the Yang run for thus far, but this was not good. I can’t quite articulate how I feel exactly, but the way the plot unfolded just felt so… inorganic. Like all the characters walking into rooms and the scene cuts just feel like BAM-BAM-BAM.

Cubed referred to the scene from a couple of issues ago with Karai fleeing the fight and cackling as feeling like an old Saturday morning cartoon, which is what I’d say about this whole issue. I dunno.

Not really looking forward to the rest of this arc at this point. But if I survived the Jason Aaron run, I can endure anything lol.

The Renet story was ok. I’ll hold my nitpicks and enjoy it for what it was, but it was certainly overhyped. My favorite part was all the different snippets of goofed up universes, especially 2012 Venus and Lady Shredder in Archie lol.
