![]() I guess his mutant powers might be that he is rarely consistent. But Warblade not being Kherubim is odd once they go to Khera (16 issues later) and we are introduced to the Shaper’s Guild. Him being a cyborg-mutant with the power to make his arms and fingers into sharp blades is rad as hell. ![]() Being found by Jacob on the shores of Gamorra all beat up from a throwdown with Ripclaw is not too bad. How does any of this fit together? Can it even fit together at all? I mean, he have thought he was a mutant, due to his shape shifting arm powers, right? But then what are his cybernetic enhancements? I’m not saying that this isn’t a cool or interesting backstory for Warblade. Is Warblade a mutant or has he been cybernetically enhanced? I thought he was half (or full blooded) Kherubim alien whose family line is part of the Shapers Guild. Warblade was a Cyberdata slave before Cyberforce escaped. Cyberdata collected mutants and gave them cybernetic enhancements to boost their mutant powers, keep them as slaves, and command them to run jobs to help them take over the world. So, Cyberforce are escapees from a company called Cyberdata. StormWatch learning about the WildC.A.T.s has much bigger ramifications in the WSU than WildC.A.T.s and Cyberforce getting in a little spat against each other.Īll that seems kinda great, so where do all the problems set in? Firstly with Warblade himself. StormWatch has only recently become aware of Daemonites, so it is only fitting that StormWatch at least sees the WildC.A.T.s in action so quickly, y’know, to get all the super humans in the WSU on more or less the same page. This is the first instance of StormWatch becoming aware of the WildC.A.T.s team. Speaking of “StormWatch” we see WeatherMan-One taking notice of the fight that erupts between the WildC.A.T.s and Cyberforce and recommends that StormWatch make scans of these combatants so that facsimiles can be made for StormWatch’s Danger Room, you know, in case they ever need to fight each other. Who thought a single exploding research center atop a mountain would be so exhilarating? ![]() There is some good here! First, goddamn, I can’t believe this is the first time I’ve realized it, but Richtoffen is the eye-patched be-monocled man from the Cabal! The bald dude that I thought we’d never see again! I had always had them filed separately in my head, but I was wrong, they are one in the same, awesome! Also awesome is the fact that this is the second story in a row that takes place on Gamorra! It, in fact, is taking place at the same time as “StormWatch” issue 6, that’s just rad comics synergy. Also we get a bonus Warblade origin that is almost immediately retconned out of existence. It comes off as more than a little sexist. They have a “Three’s Company” like misunderstanding over a girl, and that girl is alternating good and evil. member, Warblade has a shared history with Cyberforce member, Ripclaw. I’ll admit the art is fantastic Silvestri and Lee are at the top of their game with these issues! But, the story is only “meh”. ![]()
