Alien: Black, White & Blood #3

Another mixed bag. Ziglar's story in the middle is the weak link by a country mile. I feel like Utopia falters a little here. Foxe's story is fine. This is a tough IP to write for; people really struggle to find interesting things to do with it.

Utopia kind of loses itself in this installment. There was a lot of commentary on hierarchical structures that now seems gone. Gear in the Machine is an unfortunately tiring story we've seen play out multiple times in these comics. It's like the first idea any writer has when approaching this franchise, and I'll be happy to never see it again. Lucky is a very cute story. I liked it.
