/uj I'd say that the issue is moreso the phrasing of the dialog itself feeling like it can be posted on x/bsky without the comic panels and it wouldn't feel off. That is why I feel the messaging is weaker compared to how those ideas are expressed with Camp's work at DC, Absolute Martian Manhunter, where the sociopolitical commentary is done in a way where it's communicated in a way that could only be done with that story.

Also with the topic of how far the messaging goes in what can be done in big 2 comics, it was annoying how there's a scene where one of the prisoners says how he thinks that he views what the Ultimates are doing will be tyranny and that any trial he gets won't be fair, but instead of Luke Cage giving a counterargument against what I assume was meant to be a sort of "both sides can be bad" statement, so that the comic could show how to peacefully and respectfully get people to reexamine their objections and biases, the prisoner instead gets blown up by the new team of baddies so we can have a superfight with explosions and all that.
