I'm a well read grad student who's bluntly honest about all things, although I try to be most honest about myself.
And this issue made me ship them. But other than some really adorable Rhodey/Carol moments, I didn't really feel this issue. The diplomatic behind the scenes explanations of Ulysses - without explaining that it was a he, not an actual weapon - felt contrived, and never really went anywhere before this issue veered off into a Kree threat.
(Because why not forget about the Inhuman issue, in favor of the people who used them as lab rats? That seemed weird to me, and the fact that they had to shoehorn in a Kree threat, when the Kree were the ones who experimented on the humans, seemed distasteful to me. Carol's saying she's got a good relationship with the Inhumans, but is also in contact with the Kree empire, or at least some factions within the Kree empire, and has to run off to stop a Kree threat without mentioning, oh, hey, the Kree are on the planet to the Inhuman royal family? Even while she's trying to get them to let her use Ulysses? Whatever, Carol.)
So, yeah, this issue kinda pissed me off, and also felt narratively split and odd to me. Beautiful art, and like I said, loved the moments when Carol got to spend time with her kinda-bf, but I can't give it five, or even four, stars.
