I was wondering how GraveDog, would end up on Harada's side, but if he has any intentions other than serving Harada, things will end pretty bad for him.. I like that Harada's team isn't put together officially yet, it makes for a better read imo, seeing how the team forms...

Reminds me a bit of the Renegades arc when Dysart gave us a look into each member while also moving the plot along. Great stuff from him again here.

I will agree, they don't look the same. And now that I'm looking at it again, that's Gravedog's thumb pressing the button on his cellphone. I thought that since the caption was "Lifeline. Onboard Leviathan" that was the operative pushing the detonation button. But the color of the panels and the line "...you'll live through this" make it plain that's it's Gravedog detonating the ship.

My bad. I was fooled by the caption. And Gravedog told Kozol to leave the operative in place, which further made me think there was some justification for him being there.

So we're back to not knowing what Rachel and Harris are up to.

You are right that was Gravedog detonating from his cell phone, so did he blow up their chopper or did he blow up lifeline on the leviathan?

What was the meaning of the cut away panel to the leviathan?

He blew up lifeline on the Leviathan after the HARD Corps team blew the chopper.

what a great comic.

Ho Hum ... More brilliant work from Dysart

This is just smartly plotted ... With wonderful little details here and there that really shape the story and the characters

Harada is not even in the comic .. Yet it still did a great job of continuing his development as a polarizing figure in the world.

Gravedog is one of my favorite new characters.

I echo many of the comments here - and this is already shaping up as one of Dysart's best arcs.

And it really helps to have a phenomenal artist like Braithwaite on this book.

9/10

Sometimes golden showers too. Just ask Gravedog.

The shower is only sexual if you are into it.

Fantastic second issue. This book is one of the smartest on the racks right now. Pitch perfect, and I was totally pumped to see new H.A.R.D Corps. I love their new costume and the new player GraveDog. Cool code name. Imperium might be my favorite title from Valiant (well, besides the Valiant). Nice work.

Totally enjoyed this. I was enthralled by the first issue, and this just ramped things up. Grave Dog is one of the most-strongly realised characters VEI has added since the relaunch IMHO, especially in context on new creations: I would rank him with Shan Mirage, Kay McHenry and Monica Jim all as some incredibly compelling characters standing out amid a rich array of other great characters new and old. To do that so succinctly with Grave Dog points to the strength of Dysart's craft for me.

This was possibly better than the first issue for me; no mean feat. Wow.

Totally; such high quality work.

I don't read many, but among those I do, this may be the best just based on two issues.
