I'm afraid I'm right there with you in being disappointed. It wasn't a very good issue. Flat characterization, poorly executed premise and serious plot holes.
stormwreath said above that people were being hostile to this one and I imagine it might be directed at me as I've been the most vocal about the issue in the forums recently. I think everyone needs to draw a line between being disappointed with the issue though (which is what I am) and then discussing it on a forum and the debate/hostility that comes from that environment. The issue itself disappointed me to the point that I have no urge to read it again and I didn't enjoy it sadly. The only reason I've gone back to read it is for forum discussions, picking it apart analytically.
I'll be happy to move on the next issue and I'm hoping that Espenson has a better handle on the medium for the upcoming Retreat arc. This issue was a bucketful of meh to me.
