Steadily reaching the climax, I guess.

How old is Kate supposed to be? She comes off as a quirky teenager. First look in to her character and I'm mildly impressed. Let's see what's behind the next door.

Love Kate. She’s so fun. I also loved the guest character (no spoilers), they make a good team together.

TBH I liked the cover art/variant covers better than the actual art work but I know that takes a lot more time.

This was fine? IDK, the more I think about it, the more I don't love the storyline of

technologically brainwashing bros into being even more toxic-masculinity-ish? Like...IDK...that's just the internet

Also it didn't quite have the same lighthearted-yet-earnest, recovering-spoiled-girl, actually-badass vibe I expect and so appreciate from Kate?

I did love Jessica Jones' appearance but then it just sort of reminded me of like......how much more I like Jessica Jones' detective comics series than this?

Spoiler

the arrival of Lucky at the end is a good sign for the future tho

I loved the team-up with Jessica Jones! Immediately thought of her when Kate decided to be a PI.
A nice start for this run.

Funny that I just finished Mockingbird vol 2 where Clint Barton is also a character almost never seen, but still very much present in the books. Personally, I'm just as happy if Barton never does make an actual appearance and happy to say Kate Bishop has been, and will always be, MY Hawkeye.

I already loved Kate Bishop. I love her even more as a P.I. with a Veronica Mars vibe. Basically, this was the BEST!
