Like others I was glad to see Palmer fleshed out, and I feel this single issue did as much and maybe more than the whole of HW to do that.

And I have to agree that already it seems that HARDCorps could hold its own without Bloodshot -and i would like to see two distinct titles some point soon.

My only gripe is not huge, but the idea of the sequenced powers does not quite work for me. It feels like a clunky compensation to the one power at a time thing. No going back now, but in a changing battle-zone how would it work when timing of switches would be key? Still, not a huge thing, and in all a very enjoyable issue. :)
Agreed on the sequence. It's still a great idea in my opinion but there should be something else to it to work so smoothly. This could be used to show how the members of Hard CORPS work with their operators and each one could have their own shorthand. I like that their power set is a little clunky since otherwise they'd be overpowered.

He's slowly becoming my favorite character in Valiant
