I'm still having a hard time not hearing Robert Downey Jr.'s voice from his character from Tropic Thunder for the jungle Bloodshot. Issue 14 was a really great read and tease for this issue tomorrow.

Yes! Loved it. I too guessed the spoiler and was glad/sad I was correct. I'm looking forward to seeing how Deathmate can interact with the rest of the world.

Loved this issue. Have to go back and read #15, but it seemed like Deathmate has been hunting the Bloodshots for longer than makes sense with the reveal of Deathmate's identity.

Nope. One of them said something them 'it used to be something else hunting us, but recently it switched to her'. I love how this is setting up Bloodshot USA. PRS is again getting ready to unleash a plague (all the Bloodshots via the virus they mention), then they would make the country pay for a Cure in the form of Deathmate! She might even be able to 'cure' all the virused Bloodshots by sucking the nanites out of them, huh? Almost like magic! How much is Gilad gonna be *SQUEE* when he hears about this desecration of a Geomancer's body?!

This makes me wonder how much time has lapsed since The Valiant.

Maybe go back to Reborn #1 and see if it gives any indication of the time between that and the end of The Valiant? I'd guess that the first two arcs of Reborn only took a week or so maximum, but that's off the top of my head. I got the feeling that Ray wandered for a little while before the stuff in Reborn started happening. Maybe it's been a month or two since the end of The Valiant, in world?

It really raises a lot of questions. I think they need to really convince us why she was the pick for PRS; why not some random person. IDK if I liked that twist, hope its not some pigeon holed nonsense. The art has been top notch and I dig the story, just not so sure about the twist.

It's comics, ya gotta have the twist! They picked Kay because she could already fly and tap primal Earth energies; I'm going with that.

ARF! ARF!! What a fantastic issue and epic tale!

I really like the beginning (back to issue #5), the BS USA seed, and the interlude with Agent Festival and her ability!

I LOVE VALIANT!
