Strangelands Issue #6

Kinda strange that the volume I enjoyed the most so far is the one volume without our pair of protagonists. This one suddenly pulls the camera out and shows that there a lot bigger things going on behind the scenes, and the one that got involved in it is our MI6 stalker. Considering that Agent Bixby didn't get much development as a character across 5 volumes (silent character, no monologues, and zero motivations aside from "orders"), I wonder if this is just a story twist to perhaps “bring in the big guns” in the last 2 volumes.
