This issue a much bigger improvement over the last. For that I will give it another chance. Plus my love for Roy Harper tends to deny me sense of reason and even if a book sucks, I continue to punish myself. But I shall remain vigilante and hope Roy gets better. Which speaking of he wasn't bad here. He was more like his old self, joking around and even being badass. Seriously I wish you posted the plane scene. Roy didn't- hold on "Spoilers dear" (skip over)

Ok is it safe? Good.
Roy didn't use a chute or anything! He fucking jumped out. Starfire can fly. Jason had some awesome looking tech wings attached to his forearms and Roy just freestyled it! Straight edge!
Spoilers End
Still, I do believe the whole Roy/Starfire sex should be addressed and handled. Properly at that. Judging by the cover for issue 5 and after reading issue 1 and even some of this one..I got a bit of a feeling like..there's some shipping of Roy and Kori on Lobdell's part. Am I the only one who feels like this? As I said, not bothered but I feel like it's a story that should be properly handled if that's where it's going.
Oh and I can't sign off on a Roy post without ending it with "Bring back Lian!" Thank you for your time.
