Notes:
(1) I guess I was wrong about this following the pattern of the first series.
- If I had to guess, I'd say this will be bookended with the Sheldon/Grace storyline, with the bulk of it focusing on Skyfox's gradual heel turn.
(2) The second issue gets quite political, but it's done evenhandedly.
- Both sides of the controversy/conflict are portrayed as morally dubious.

Notes:
(1) The final two issues continue the philosophical bent this series has taken. Here it's a look into how human superhumans are, and how that affects those around them.
- With regard to Utopian specifically, I don't think they quite stuck the landing there.
(2) Easter egg: Skyfox is seen reading "Millar & McNiven's Nemesis."
- I can't tell if it's significant or not.

Notes:
(1) These middle issues are a little tame. Though it's a good plot, they're really more about philosophy than story.
- Specifically, the contrast between moral ambiguity and objective morality.
- There are lines that Skyfox will cross to achieve (in his mind) a moral end, lines he absolutely will not cross, and standards of evil he cannot stand idly by to let happen.

Notes:
(1) Given the first series focused on half the Union members, I'm guessing this will focus on the other half.
- I presume also in two-parters, and expect it to focus again on their vices and insecurities.
- Though, the last issue did leave off on a kind of cliffhanger as it relates to Skyfox, but that could easily factor into someone else's story, likely Brainwave's.
