Story: Flint is able to stop the G.I. B.A.T. but Duke is hurt so Night Force and the Joes head back to base. The Baroness makes contact with a handler of some sort to get supplies and information. Hawk/Zartan meets up with General Flagg and they discuss the Mobile Command Center and its Energon stores. Hawk/Zartan splits the Joes up into two teams - one to track the Baroness and one to escort the MCC. Flint is unhappy he needs to take the G.I. B.A.T. again and asks Scarlett to keep an eye on Cobra activity that would indicate the Baroness gave them info. Hawk/Zartan contacts Zarana and Zandar to get them to mobilize Cobra to make it look like Cobra knows something. Meanwhile, the Baroness finds Hawk's cabin and a surprise inside.
Writing: Not as much action here, but there in going-ons. Many plots are building to a head and Flint isn’t so sure of Hawk anymore. We also get to see Doc and Flagg in the Joe comic now too!
Art: Really good throughout the issue. Getting to see a slick, updated Mobile Command Center was pretty neat.
Overall: A strong entry into the 5-part Night Force story. While this issue is a bit heavier on story points, it just goes fast.
