#MarvelUK #Motormouth #5 (1992) - 5/10
Below average.
MM & KP vs robots
Our heroes are on an alien world being attacked. There's not much more to it than that. Action without context. And it only covers 11 pages in total.
11 pages are devoted to a #NickFury& #Punisher story that isn't related to Motormouth. Their villains are MyS-TECH. That's the only (slim) connection. It's an odd package.
#MarvelUK #Motormouth #4 (1992) - 6/10
Strange.
Harley Davis is killed in the jungle.
This is one weird title. No two issues are the same, except for #NickFury being bad at his job.
This one seemingly sets up the real status quo they were aiming for all along. Maybe.
In any case, Harley now has powers and a partner. Her exchanges with KP were the best part.

Okay.
Harley Davis is offered a job.
It looks good and there's plenty of action, but why should we care? Harley is now working for the bad guys. At least, in this issue.
#ThePunisher is in this comic. Why? Because.

By-the-numbers origin.
New heroine trained by the #XMen.
In some ways it feels like a comic from the 1960s. There's no subtlety. Everything is clearly spelled out. Compared to the other comics that feature MyS-TECH, that is refreshing. So much so that this is the best of the bunch. It also gives context to the events of #MOTORMOUTH and #WARHEADS, making both a little better. Or, at least, helping us understand them better.
#MarvelUK #Motormouth #2 (1992) - 6/10
More of the same.
Harley arrives somewhere else, gets in trouble; Killpower kills some SHIELD agents.
Nothing much changes. There's lots of running to stand still. We know very little about Harley, or those shoes she's wearing. 11 of the pages don't even feature her. This is violent fun. But I feel like I just read issue one twice!

Fun.
Harley Davis gets a new pair of shoes.
This first issue is dense with detail. We have villains, called MyS-Tech, developing something. And executing one of their own for failure. We have heroes, SHIELD, trying to figure out what's going on. There's action and sci-fi and a high death toll. The second half plays like an episode of the #SLIDERS TV show, with Harley on a parallel Earth that could be called Fashion World. It’s certainly not dull.
