Void Rivals #20 is also out!
It's a good issue. It's kind of juggling a lot of plots again. I actually like this book more when it's more focused, like the Skuxxoid spotlight last issue. But, we still get more Skuxxoid this issue, because of course we do.
It finally feels like this book has found it's legs a bit. Things are happening more consistently than before. I'd say it's gotten good. It's worth picking up.

To be fair, I wouldn't want to mess with Solila right now, either. You don't mess with someone who just got a power-up. You always know they want to show off.
Wow, he literally shot her in the back. A little on the nose, there.
It's tough being a Handroid.
Meanwhile, Skuxxoid (uhh..."our" Skuxxoid? Scarred-Skuxxoid? This is going to get confusing...) gets thrown into a slime pit! How's ol' Skuxxy gonna get out of this one, folks?!
Oh, now suddenly Dulin doesn't feel chatty? Great time to just decide not to tell Solila the thing that could stop her from attacking you, maybe.
If your bet on how Scarred-Skuxxoid was gonna get out of the slime pit was "the medical robots just let him out", you win! Okay, that's the second worst doctor's waiting room I've ever seen.
Apparently, the robots are very concerned that Cobra-La's acid talons were able to permanently scar Scarred-Skuxxoid. Since they all have healing factors. So, yeah, that could be a problem with the so-called "invincible" Skuxxoid army they got brewing above.
And they KILL Freshly-Budded-Skuxxoid! Oh, Buddy, we barely knew ye!
Talking about Skuxxoids is going to be a lot like talking about Smurfs, isn't it? And...now I'm imagining all the Skuxxoid's singing a little song introducing themselves...great.
Dear, sweet Akronus really wants some new armor. But, he would NEVER use the junk on Junkion. No matter how rad and metal that would be. Right? Okay, he's definitely going to be decked out the next time we see him.
Okay, so we have a bit of a conflict. One side of believes that they need to release the Goliant now to ensure it's destroyed. The other thinks everyone on the Ring will die if they release it, with Zerta not caring about them. Okay. That's a fine conflict. It would have been nice if Zerta mentioned HOW she was planning to destroy the Goliant. That little piece of information would have solved a lot of upcoming problems.
Meanwhile, Zalilak (the other leader) completes his trials that's he's been undergoing since issue #13. Man, that's been a slow-burn of a plot thread. Anyway, Zerta tells him to help Solila wake up the Goliant.
And in the letters page, they mention there's going to be a exclusive SDCC toy set with Jetfire, Solila, and Darak. (And probably Handroid, too!). Neat! I'll never see one in real life, but it's neat! Now, the real question is, when are we getting a Skuxxoid figure? Because you KNOW Kirkman is trying to getHasbro to make that one next. This time next year we'll probably get a three-pack of "Scarred" Skuxxoid, "Buddy" Skuxxoid, and Skuxxoid Alpha.
Gyconi is apparently going to play a bigger role in the story soon. That's...okay. I don't know what to make of that.
