its not even the humans that people are surprised will be a challenge its nimrod. you show us something this powerful and then tell us nimrod is actually still a threat. people just find it hard to believe. i know suspension of disbelief is needed in comics but showing us over the top power and then ignoring it in the same run makes it way harder.
Enjoyed the issue, it definitely read like a Hickman comic.
One question - I know Iceman does temperature manipulation rather than generating ice. Would there be enough moisture on Mars to generate all that ice?
Boring issue. I've found the Arakko mutants to be boring, so while I'm glad they're gone now, a big "planet-sized" issue to explain how they got gone is still going to bore me to tears in the middle of the previously already boring Hellfire Gala.
Sigh. Let's just fast-forward to Inferno so I can get the story that Hickman wanted to tell before editorial decided to pad out this Hickman era with boring filler trash by non-Hickman writers, with the exception being my beloved Hellions written by my beloved Zeb Wells, one of the few writers in comics who should be allowed to use humor.
