There is not a lot to comment on in this issue. It has little dialog and focuses on a mostly silent Mal eking out a bare existence in the wilds of on an unnamed frontier world.

 

On page 4, Mal takes down an auto-tank that attacks him. The automated mobile weapon on legs is first referred to as an auto-tank by Mal later on in "Return to Earth-That-Was" Part 6.
