What's the worst thing for Spike to get his hands on?
The Aequitas Trials data.
And Prowl left it right on the table.

Barely kept awake? what would you prefer? A lot of comic readers often grumble and yawn when they are faced with dialogue driven scenes but i am curious, would you prefer an action packed story all the time? Don't you think even that would get boring? Is the payoff not worth the setup? I am of the opinion that scenes like this one make me crave action sequences. But its a trade off, you don't get rich story from action sequences.

I'd prefer Ongoing 22-23 style dialogues, where there are interesting things behind dialogues. The last page, where Jazz complains, is pure one page of wasted paper - he should be locked away for what he did, in the first place.

Back in 1997, I was in Navy basic training where I had an allergic reaction to an inoculation. It caused internal swelling in my left hip and compressed the sciatic nerve, effectively paralyzing my left leg for an entire month. So believe me when I say: you can still stomp on things with a dead leg. It's a very lurching motion, just kind of kicking the good leg out there for a second and bringing it down hard. It's not easy but it's far from impossible.

The only way Costa can conclude this unexpectedly is if he does it in a way that doesn't insult the intelligence of the reader and doesn’t rely on characters acting out of character or doing things because the so called “plot” demands it.
In other words, it’ll end up like every other conclusion he’s ever done.

I'm planning on skipping volume 4: Heart of Darkness...the artwork and story just don't appeal to me. Volume 5: Chaos Theory will be out in November, so I'll just pick up from there.
