In addition to being the second part of Roberts's surprisingly great run on Harbinger, this volume also features a coda to [b:Generation Zero, Vol. 1: We are the Future|34094132|Generation Zero, Vol. 1 We are the Future|Fred Van Lente|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1485924406l/34094132._SY75_.jpg|52467355], and brings back the characters from [b:Bloodshot, Volume 4: H.A.R.D.

This is an excellent joining of various Valiant properties in preparation for [b:Harbinger Wars 2|42734442|Harbinger Wars 2|Matt Kindt|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1541737168l/42734442._SY75_.jpg|65767449]. I'm actually disappointed Roberts didn't get write that event.

If you read [a:Fred Van Lente|112080|Fred Van Lente|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1480893843p2/112080.jpg] or [a:Joshua Dysart|63222|Joshua Dysart|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1389368976p2/63222.jpg]'s Valiant runs, and enjoyed them, I would definitely pick up Generation Zero, and this series. It's a satisfying conclusion to a bunch of old plots.
