Not excited. We had nearly two years of RiD doing sweet f.a. Now we have something building out of Shockwave, something more related to the Furman stories than anything more current. I'm glad to be getting a more coherent and tied together universe after the way Costa and McCarthy destroyed all that had come before them, but not sure Barber is up to it, writing a way forward month in, month out. If you want someone to connect the dots in established continuity and make gold out of lead, he is the man you want, but his writing in RiD has left much to be desired.
Roberts on the other hand has been in top form almost the entire run of MtMtE, so that excites me, seeing how the two can combine the stories they have concocted with distance such a big problem.
Personally I would have preferred a crossover with the DJD ( with their mentioning in the preview for RiD, I hope it comes to pass at some point) or even the scavengers, as both of those units have been more interesting and better developed than anything RiD has given us.
