Pretty good. The Dino Dracon thing has been slowly building since issue #1. It looks like his plan to start a war between the other cartels is underway. He's a pretty crafty villain. No wonder his relatives fear him so much. But it looks like the main plot for the next few issues is going to be a reboot of sorts of a Season 3 episode, which was one of its better ones as well. It seems this series is doing well. It's definitely worth getting. In this age of monotonous comics that only repeat themselves or try to act like anime it's good to have a series based on a classic series that stays true to its roots, but offers some new twists as well. I look forward to the next chapter.
