* NoManShouldHaveThisPower: In the final issue, after villain Saxon St. John's death, Willy Deere is looking forward to the technological progress that the [=CIA=] can make with the villain's research into cybernetics. Jenny, less cynical and all too aware of how the MadDoctor experimented on innocents, decides that it's better to destroy it instead. For bonus points, the weapon she uses to destroy it is the laser that Deere's built into her new armor.
