Summary
Johns gives us the origin story of Ulysses, has Supes embracing his role as a mentor, and introduces the Machinist.
What I Liked
✔Great character development with Ulysses/Neil
✔Cool to see Supes teamed up with someone that's close to being his "equal"
✔Good dialogue, especially between Ulysses and his parents
✔Pretty good action
What I Didn’t Like
✘Romita's facial expressions and hands looked very strange
✘Machinist seems a bit weak and one-dimensional, but it's too early to make final judgment on his character
✘Cliffhanger seemed inevitable and a bit predictable--this is something that most fans would probably see coming
