Such a intellectual deep conversation is more notable when couched inside the 'action adventure' genre expectations. The writers handled that really quite masterfully while remaining true to the comic book nature of the story and its 'unlikely' team-up and cameos.My only real complaint about the episode was the lack of SE Asian cast in the Madripoor scenes, its called out as an Island in the Indonesian Archipelago but apparently its entirely inhabited by white gangsters and black bar staff. It might not have been as much of an issue if race wasnt an important theme in the show...</blockquote>
