All Too Easy

Original Release Date: November 27, 2012

There's a lot of talk on this page as the good guys enjoy a brief, but deserved, respite. However, the pacing stays reasonably quick--the folks in the compound don't take the time to give the ninja a play-by-play of everything that happened while they were outside, which is good. Plus, there are a few jokes sprinkled in to keep things light and interesting.

The thing I like most about this page, however, is now that Mike is operating with this new mindset and confidence, he immediately gets put to the test. Ohtani informs him in the last panel that it's going to be Mike's job to get rid of The Six. It immediately raises the level of tension again before anybody has the chance to get too comfortable, and leaves the reader wondering if Mike's newfound resolve will hold up.
