I enjoyed this story but there were a few issues. 1. sidekick syndrome it seems Mack must have a side kick in his adventures. He was a lone wolf for most of the first 200 and now every one has one 2 the villain was the most stupid villain due to not know who Phil Paxton was just a little bit of a stretch
The knife fight at the end may have been marginally over the top, lol. Still, a shower of blood spewing from the bad guy's jugular was pretty awesome. There's always one more mission for The Executioner!
