I’m really loving this arc!  I really like Mehta and the new Vindicator.  I know they are the worst, but I love them for it.  Plus, they don’t get along with each other, just adding to the enjoyment. 

I also really appreciate Mehta finding a way to weaken Logan.  She has a gadget that can give him heart attacks. 

Vindicator is about to give the old Morlocks, Erg & Ape, enhanced interrogations, when Alpha Flight shows up to stop her.  They were supposed to watching Silver Sable, who escapes, as she’s no longer being watched.  The new Morlocks, Chowdown & Deepfake, rescue Logan, using the skills he taught them.

I like that Silver Sable gets a win over Vindicator, so they’re 1-1 now.  Sable was caught off guard, but now has time to notice Vindicator protecting her right leg, where her shield is the weakest at.  I guess every shield needs to have a weak point?  For some reason?

Issue ends with the return of fan favorite, Adamantine, so I guess I’m not going to enjoy the Hercules arc as much?  Silver Sable is sticking around for another issue, so maybe we’re still in for a good time? 

Adamantine is in an arena of sorts, and there is a reference to Romulus, who will be featured in an upcoming Cerebro episode.  I’ve checked the Travis Starnes list, and I don’t own issue comic where Romulus appears in, nor is there any on my wishlist.
