Doesn't look like zarya or cas really.

We open at the Novoanskoye Forward Base in Siberia, Russia.
Aleksandra Zaryanova grew up in Novanskoye, and she wants to protect her home town. (She has cool pink hair, too.)
She and her team are fighting the Omnics who are destroying their land.
Suddenly, the Omnic forces breech their Northeastern front—the humans must retreat to protect the city of Krasnoyarsk.
Cole is persuasive; Zarya attempts to rebuff his recruitment attempts.
Good action scenes. Unfortunately, Zarya’s unique proficiency remains cloaked in mystery.

Blizzard. Com has a great game in this.
Good color artwork. What there is of it. These brief views of the over watch world are like 20 second commercials. Strange to see Russians given a positive spin. The rebirth of over watch is going well.

Great issue once again, Cassidy recruits Zarya this time, and we get a decent story and a solid issue overall.
Irene Koh, the artist on this series, is just amazing. Slowly falling in love with her art issue by issue, and you will too.
