Here's page 12 of Fusion #3.
When we left Brooder earlier, the last thing he said about Fusion was, “She's not stupid.” Well, now we return to him and it seems he's amended his opinion.

how long can she keep letting "bad guys" go before everyone assumes she's a bad guy herself?

It seems like Fracture wouldn't have needed to change his name from Fission, since nuclear fission is the splitting of the nucleus. Of course, I'm guessing that's part of the reason the writer chose Fission as his original name.

Addressing the points alschroeder makes . . . In short, Fusion and Bob basically share the same soul. Because of this, Fusion not only can hear Bob's "thoughts" (although in the first issue from his conversation with Penelope, we can assume that he's capable of "speaking" in a psychic range Savunn can't hear), but she can feel his emotional state as well. What's affecting Fusion here isn't so much Bob's request that she help Fracture but the strong emotional urgency and emotional sincerity driving his words. Plus, the fact that she can feel the emotional state of Fracture--feel the underlying terror behind his screams--really gives her an emotional overload that, perhaps, is overriding her common sense. Of course, Fusion isn't thinking about her psychological state--she's reacting to all of these emotional cues with her heart (which she does a lot)--so she can't provide any exposition on it. Plus, as a rule, I avoid any "authorial" exposition in the story, so it's up to Fusion's readers to think about these things. That said, you guys don't have the full story yet on Fracture, which makes it hard to get a grasp on the current situation--but much more will be revealed before the issue ends. And as for fighting . . . Next issue will have confrontations with no less than 6 true villains. And yes . . . there will be fighting.

Ummm...look, no one's a bigger fan of Fusion than I, but a couple of words from Bob, and she helps the guy who punched out their world's Superman, their world's Captain America? I know she's sharing his mind, but that seems a bit much. I think a little more explanation and prep would have been better. Otherwise, it's like, "Oh, BOB vouches for him, kinda, without explaining hardly anything---so I'm going to defy my world's Justice League, my world's Avengers, and risk everything I've worked for...just because BOB says so." BTW, is Fusion ever going to fight someone? This is the second time she's let a guy just...go. I HOPE you won't be discouraged by the criticism. It's just...it doesn't really hold together, the way it was presented. STILL a very fine comic. With a page or two of explanation, we could see her doing this. But without evidence---without much of anything except "Bob says so"---it doesn't seem--plausible.
