Comments: The Sky Corps Cadets protect the planet from alien threats. Mech Cadet Park leads a group of mechs that took out one alien invasion. 
 Park leads her team to stop looters only these looters are only common people trying to survive. Sanford one of Park's team acts out of caring for the people. She understands what and why things are happening as they are. Park supports Sanford's actions and in doing so disobeys orders. There are consequences. 
  The team gets a mission and are attacked in outer space by aliens the same ones the Sharg who they defeated before except these are an upgraded model. Plus a new aliens species are they friend or foe? They are draw cute.
  There is mention of fighting the Sharg mother ship yet that part is not gotten into so you are left wondering exactly what happened there other than the Mech Cadets beat them. 
  This issue has no action and no fighting. It does have big and small robot suits shown. They look cumbersome. 
  This series is off to a slow start, hopefully it will pick up.
