I personally hate when readers try to "rewrite" a story to make it "better" and far be it for me to even try but...
If I was Orlando and I was introducing the FG mutants for the first time in this story it would have helped if, in between the extraneous Crimson shenanigans and foolery, we got at least one page per issue filling out their backstory and why they should be important (other than being FG), so at least by the time we got to this 5th issue we would intellectually feel connected to something...other than a test-tube.
