    It was a good moment - albeit a bit bumbling for his iceskill set.

    Anyway, I though Grace did his usual fantastic job with the issue, but this was far and away my favorite scene:

    Another good moment.

    He gave that woman a number to UCLA to get a job teaching...that's not how that works Why not Tony Starks' number? or someone else techy?

    This issue just felt like he wrote the gay stuff first and built a story around that without the same detail/consistency to everything else.

    It's trying too hard to push the gay.
    Agreed.

    The only "good" story element -of note- was the TWO ICEMEN subplot.

    And if he moves to L.A. he will instantly loose this established supporting cast pool - which a solid title needs.

    What up with X-men and popcorn? They just finished making buckets while they watched Mojo attack! And how many other citings have there been? All the way back to their goto Magnum P.I. watching snack!

    Bobby's first meeting with Natasha finally revealed was SO underwhelming after that build up.

    Bobby letting the SENTINEL building 'foe' off the hook may be in some ways a 'kind' character moment but on the other hand: WHAT?! What she did was criminal and destructive to offhandly dismiss like that.

    Bobby's reunion with Laynia felt disengenuous. However, it was great to see her again and this could be chalked up to getting a feel for writing her spot on.

    Bobby making ice construct/s left and right, big and small, is getting tired - without better consistency and quantitative logic included.

    Fire Island is a really tiny island south of (but part of, really) Long Island.. Cherry Grove on Fire Island is a highly gay populated area.
