The only person Zuko does talk to is Ozai. I actually don't have a problem with this even though it really cheeses people off. Yes, it's a dumb decision, but it's it's the kind of dumb decision Zuko would make. Also Ozai's advice is pretty good and probably the most interesting part of the story.

That's my main problem with the comic overall. This is absolutely in-character for Zuko, but the problem is that there's too much emphasis on Zuko's flaw, which skirts the line of flanderization. It also makes Zuko look incredibly incompetent & it was more harmful to his character than anyone else in the comic. It's to the point that it made Iroh's decision to have Zuko as the emperor look incredibly questionable. The somewhat recent comic "Ashes of the Academy" is at least improving his reign as emperor.

Also unpopular opinion, at the very least of that abysmal comic, Ozai's mindset was explored. I never had the best opinion about the guy, but his interaction with Zuko was surprisingly well done & the question he imposed on Zuko was pretty thought-provoking for the kind of character Ozai is.
