Anyone else annoyed they changed this? COMIC SPOILERS

Amazon primes doesn’t allow screenshots so I’ll just use this basic pic, but is anyone else annoyed Rae survived? Because if she survives, that means everyone survived the battle. Let at least 1 death from that fight be permanent.

It’s effective because Rex thought she was dead, that entire fight was for Rex’s development, with Kate and Ray as tertiary focuses. Why is it that you think death is the only thing that gives a fight impact?

Problem with having fake-out deaths is that the audience is not going to be invested in the stakes in future fights. You need characters to die sometimes.
