Overall, I found it too conventional, and simplistic. The art completely takes me out of it [w/those HUGE eyebrows & forehead], 'cause all I can see is baby Bobby, from the time displaced 05. He looks like a boy, instead of a man. There were other things also, didn't care for him just lettin' that dude he rescued to start mackin' on him. Wished he would've been more like, "Whoa there, big guy, nothin' personal but... naw, that's not cool." Just sayin', if he were a female character, that would've been a no-no. But I guess reverse double standards can & do... apply? Bringin' back an aged-up but still overwhelmingly cheese-tastic Romeo, didn't do this fan any favors, either. Can't believe that would ever be any sort of crowd-pleaser, I mean, who was askin' for it... eXactly?
TLDR, I'm in no rush to read the remaining 3 issues, but will... I guess, at some point, as soon as I can muster the will to do so. On the positive side, adding to my 2 likes of his crash pad & eco activism, is that him admitting that he & Christian did NOT... amount to anything serious, and are just FWB, basically. It wasn't meant to be, and Bobby can do better than Emma with a [smaller] penis.
And quickly, on making him biseXual instead of gay, I hafta admit this has X'd my mind A LOT... and still does now, from time 2 time. But that would've been like having your cake & eating it, too, was said... for a double entendre win. So, weighing the pros & cons, I've personally come to the conclusion... that I'm glad they pulled the trigger, and went all in. It was the ballsier, braver, more meaningful thing to do, and they were right in making the commitment... total, and not shy away, to take the "safer" route. Good on you, Marvel, may've not [all that much] liked the way ya went about it... but solid props, anyway.
