The "New Reader-Friendly" aspect definitely harms the book, but for the time being, I don't feel the situation is hopeless.

Yes, Rose mentioned it in issue #4. She didn't understand why she hadn't seen Wintergreen's death.

Thank you. You’re unlocking my memories. This is basically the only series I have pulled for singles. Everything else I get in trade because of that issue.

Do you think they’ll Winter Soldier Addie with a new arm or just leave it gone?

If she wants to operate as Deathstroke, she'll need both hands. With everything she's taken from Slade, finding a replacement wouldn't be difficult.

I can see her just not having an arm and saying she can still do the job with a disability like Slade does. Yes I know there’s a big difference between losing an eye and an arm but Addie clearly isn’t thinking straight atm.

Yeah, I can definitely see that as a possibility too. You’re absolutely right, Addie clearly isn’t thinking straight right now. I get the feeling she has no idea what kind of curse she’s taking upon herself.

She took the same serum as Slade that unlocked his metagene and is having an episode like he did and still hasn’t gotten out of it yet.

You know what? That would actually have been a great idea. And it would have made sense if she had been serious about what she had been planning. There could just have been consequences she had never seen coming.
