This might be a improvement of the Reanimen arc! I really enjoyed myself in this episode, and I'm really looking forward to the big fight. Some considerations:

- The extention of the Reanimen arc was welcome, since it gave a creepier vibe to DA Sinclair

- Atom Eve's little journey helping people was really neat to see

- Mark and Amber have some interesting moments different from the comics, which gave moer depth to their relationship (which is always a good thing)

- Debbie was freacking phenomenal in this episode. Her wine addiction foreshadowing was really nice and completely heartbreaking to remember what will happen to her.

- Robot's two plotlines were really well done, being quick but also planting seeds for future events

- Nolan, as opposed to his comic counterpart, will possibly give me nightmares, but other than that he was amazing!

- And, FINALLY, we got to see the Mauler Twins getting Immortal's body!!!!!!!!

In conclusion, this episode was both fun and scary, while also planting and irrigating future narrative threads. 9/10 can't wait for the fight!

I absolutely love the pacing, and this episode was downright chilling. I was worried for William. I had a feeling that if anything happened to him, my wife would quit. I think the body dismorphia of the re-animen was walking a fine line for her, but I think that's what I love most about this adaptation. It walks a fine line. I am constantly feeling very somber during these action sequences. It's a different experience than the comic, and I love it.
