CROSSING OVER TO THE MODERN ERA
Nice cut. This issue makes some serious adjustments from the Silver toward the Bronze Age. Now, it's readjusting the placement of Medusa in the era - certainly - but it is making a bunch better. Invisible Woman is becoming less of a stupid girl mentality. She is a thinker - not just prettified.

3/5
