Sidekick pregnancy!

The Good
Rocket is now easily my favorite black super heroine This girl is the star of the show and I love her! She has the right attitude for the crime fighting game and is more relatable on a personal level. Sure she’ll never get the accolades Icon does despite doing all the grunt work as it may BUT this girl can kick some ass! Honestly I can’t stop Gushing.
The art is growing on me with each new issue I read it is definatly a style that I’ll always think of when I recall Icon and Rocket. The conspiracy theory is brought to light here and indeed it will be the basis of the dakaotaverse’s super beings, which I like. Warring gangs/riots and teargas go hand in hand, hell I’ve been gassed once simply by walking by a riot at the wrong time. So I understand Payback and how he got caught in up in all this. I also get that some people are above the law with the mayor’s involvement in the whole mess. Those last pages were a shocker….teenage pregnancy in comics? I’ve never seen that Shit before!
The Bad
Icon while in theory is a “black superman” gets taken down pretty easily during the fight.
The Ugly
5/5
