I'll admit the ending wasn't what I thought when reading the previous volume (I thought the protagonists and the agent would end up actively cooperating with each other). But it's still a pretty disappointing ending; with many plot holes (e.g. why did Kittyhawk lure and manipulate when she can kidnap? Why experiment with unreliable human bombs, if she's so rich and powerful - just build actual bombs... that "CCE" energy thing actually makes much more value-sense as a perpetual energy source), illogical situations (facility conducting top-secret and probably-illegal experiments, and an old man (sure, he has "powers") basically just walked in), and unresolved issues (that poor agent doesn't even get to say anything). I suppose the idea is to show that there really is a much bigger picture, but given the short comic medium, I think it tried to go too big.
