Don&#8217;t get me wrong, parts of it were wonderful. The ninjas refusing to fight because they knew they were going to lose, the evil genius&#8217;s reaction when he loses (and if you didn&#8217;t know that, shame on you), and the Bald Eagle were all wonderful. There&#8217;s also a playful sense running through this, nothing is taken that seriously. Maybe it&#8217;s just because I read this in clumps (kept getting interrupted) and this does seem like just the sort of thing that I might love a few issues down the road&#8230; but so far I don&#8217;t.
