Its cool to get a look at traditional super-heroism done in a more classical golden-age sort of a milieu. As refreshing as it is to return to that in a more of a modern style of storytelling, its still very firmly rooted in a version of the superhero concept thats pretty much-been played-out over the decades. The blend of US and Asian styles of super-heroic storytelling is going to need to be more of a focus on future issues if Aero is to remain aloft for months and the year to come. Read Full Review
Aero's style still dominates the series, but its story is moving forward a bit too slowly in this latest issue. Read Full Review
" Your réputation will be ruined. And everyone will know your secret. That you're just a scared little girl. "

There are solid nuggets of intelligence and charm scattered through the slow-moving story. Keng's art puts a noteworthy polish on top of straightforward manga-style lines.
Wow, what to say... This issue sucks. I don't know which writer to blame, but the dialogue and the narration are so stilted. It feels like they didn't know what else to write, so they wrote the most clichéd and obvious things they could. Like it was a challenge for them. Thankfully, like with Sword Master last week, there are no more backups, so this issue went by quickly. I'm excited for this race towards cancelation.
