I love this story arc just because it shows the reader that world politics are stronger than any army. The cover always gave me trouble though...GungHo and Snakes are cool in their active state, but it makes Tripwire look like a wimp.

I'm a big fan of actual battles in the comic book. This was a great issue and the cover really did it for me. A lot like that cover with Roadblock on the TTBP.
