Comments: Stretch, Wingspan, and Omni-Mass are battling a huge bug creature. The Flex Fighters do find themselves in a fight with the Mantoid.
Stretch, Wingspan and Omni-Mass do put up a fight against this mantis that was mutated. The teens do seem to actually be having some fun as they try to stop the Mantoid. The art is fun looking as well. It is colorful that is for sure. Nice bright colors to catch your eye.
For all the promise this comic has, it is still boring. The action is slow plus there is very little of it. The art is done well but it does not show off the characters well, there are no good poses. Even the creature is not shown off as it should be, the poses show part of the creature only and from an angle that makes it hard to tell what you are looking at.
Stretch is one cool character he just needs to be used better.
