:As of this issue, consider me officially sold on DuffyB. Halsey's systematic dismantling of Palmer's arguments was a glorious thing to behold, mostly because of how unexpected it was and how far it went with tearing down the Travissian view of her character. And I'd never have guessed they'd call Palmer out for her flaws so directly. A few issues back I commented that Palmer should have to face the consequences of her actions at some point and I have to give credit where credit is due because that seems to be finally happening now; hopefully this'll serve as a catalyst for some much-needed character growth for her. The presence of ''Infinity'''s sub-vessels was a welcome sight too, and despite 'Nyon's rebellion ultimately amounting for nothing it was somewhat refreshing that there was more going on in this conflict than merely the tired UNSC vs. Covenant setup. And yeah, some of the faces were extremely awkward-looking, though I thought the linework was better overall (barring some exceptions like one obviously Photoshop-filtered-from-a-screenshot DMR). Still, this issue was definitely a winner for me for the satisfying Halsey-Palmer interaction alone. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 13:10, 25 March 2015 (EDT)

::Other than what's probably going to get said, did anyone notice that thruster pack action? It seems to be able to be used like a jetpack at least for a bit. Well, vertical lift. [[User:Erickyboo|Erickyboo]] ([[User talk:Erickyboo|talk]]) 14:35, 25 March 2015 (EDT)

:Well, that's the end of Sali 'Nyons Covenant faction. I would have liked to see the group in future instalments/other Halo media but alas, it wasn't meant to be. Ah well, the issue was a good one, and like you said Jugus, it was great to see Palmer being put in her place XD [[User:SLiD1nG Pr0Xy|SLiD1nG Pr0Xy]] ([[User talk:SLiD1nG Pr0Xy|talk]]) 21:24, 26 March 2015 (EDT)
