      I like how focussed it seems to be on the 'Flight.

      How long was it between #2 and #3? Seems longer than usual.

      Yeah, it was delayed by two weeks, which probably explains the art assist.

      Alien-Dog in robot insect suit is now my favorite character.

      I haven't followed the comics too closely recently, is there a reason why Sasquatch has not reverted to his "human" form?

      You'd think being on a space station he would be better off as Walter Langkowski.

      No reason given, afaik.

      Maybe but then again it looks like a dog to me. If it's a cat I hate the character now

      no clue how Marvel was able to taken out Sasquatch off-panel seeing as she was drastically weakened and there was a large strength difference as shown in the scene earlier. Sure she would have caught him by surprise, but still.

      I'm guessing using a weapon/her powers, from behind.

      She couldn't even use her powers really though. definitely by surprise, but unless she used the ship it doesn't make much sense since she was so depleted.

      As Brand said, she was still at 10% which could have included her blasts.

      she could have still had her blasts but would be no where near potent enough. Even from behind and with Walters guard down it would be a stretch. It happened off-panel so who knows what happened

      Aww... I liked it better as a cat.
      (Still haven't got the issue, though, what do I know?)

      Having now read it, I enjoyed the issue quite a bit.
      In my mind, it is and will always be a cat.

      Carol was at 10% and falling when Brand spoke to her. That means she was quite a bit higher when she took Walter out.
      Also, she took him out off-panel. We've established that AF are particularly vulnerable when off-panel.
