Love how they did the simultaneous Lizard League and Sequid encounters. They ironically did a good job moving the plot quickly in the slower first half just to deliver such a brutal second half. Even knowing Kate and Rae’s fates ahead of time didn’t make their “deaths” any less visceral.

IIRC that’s how it was done in the comics, right?

I'm confused. I thought Kate retires with Immortal in the comics and didn't die? Am I forgetting something obvious? Haha

She keeps her "0" in a hidden place and didn't tell anybody about it
