This issue had a lot of really awesome things happen. I thought was really cool to see Nathan and Ed work together after everything in the last few books. And then we got to see how the belts for jumping to Oblivion and back can be used. The scene were Nathan does it real fast to just get on the other side of the door was so sweet. And now Ed activated the device that started it all. And I still can't wrap my head around how big this actually is. The aftermath might be as big as the original Transference if not bigger. All I do know is that Issue 10 is going to be huge!

I just love how it's been like 4 issues of building the bond between them just for ed to be a total asshole and nathan to still have to be the hero

I don't think it a new concept but I really like how Nathan doesn't think he's a hero but really is by definition. I hope he accepts it.

I mean no it's not new but the preview panel of him punching ed in the face leaves hope for a conflict

If Nathan has any sense everyone who knows anything about him breaking out and then stealing the device won't make it back out of Oblivion.

Hes way to good of a guy to do that though. He also thinks he deserves to be punished for making it in the first place

But is Ed? :D

That's a fair point hes much more of a survivor

I don't think they will, it's just my first thought when Ed pressed the button was "and Nathan thought he was in trouble before" lol

Ed activated the device, but I don't believe that it's going to work. At least not 100%. I think it is too soon (Issue #9) for something so catastrophic to occur, if/when it does happen there will be much more of a build up.
