I like Alyssa Wong’s minimalist surgical writing.

Stand-outs are penciler Ruairi Coleman and colorist Bryan Valenza. I’m ignorant to whatever term that may exist but Valenza’s the cell shading or block coloring is really nice.

Really liked the art. The Undone is reminescent of Magic The Gathering's Journey into Nyx Kruphix art but better. Wong also writes another interesting issue.

This issue was really good. I felt the tension with Undone growing...literally.

Ah, I enjoyed that: a little bloody horror as I'd expect from Wong but possibly not from a Captain Marvel one and it adds some nice stakes to this story.

Yuna claims she learned a lesson from Carol but I honestly couldn't tell u when that happened with how fast this comic is paced
