The Rundown: With her team in trouble, Jun risks everything to save them.

After escaping the enemy base, Jun and Beta team have orders to return to their own base. Unfortunately, the Science Ninja Team are still under attack and trying to defend the city. Jun decides to defy orders and go find her team as Katse decides to sacrifice his own people to destroy the Science Ninja Team.

With time running out, Jun comes just in time to help her team take on the giant mecha over the city, but her defiance of orders could be the opening Galactor needs to bring down the Science Ninja Team once and for all.

The Story: Bunn continues to create a fun, thrilling and thoroughly entertaining adventure in this issue. It has awesome action and drama among the characters and I like seeing the growing cracks in the team that will cause some interesting divisions to come in the future. I love the world building in this series and Bunn is planting some really interesting seeds that I am intrigued to see grow from this arc.

The Art: Batista delivers some beautifully detailed and visually striking art throughout the issue. I love the visual style and how the action has a wonderful, anime feel.
