Alternatively, if Dr. Singh learns that Birdie is alive, he could throw is eggs into that basket, and attempt to proceed his analysis by serving to her discover a treatment. However, if Birdie is alive, the possibilities of letting a person assist her who induced such hurt to her son are extremely slim.

Is Birdie really alive?

The greatest query is whether or not or not Birdie is definitely alive.

Considering we’re but to see Birdie within the flesh, there’s nonetheless no assure that she is alive and properly. A tragic coincidence can be for Gus and the group to seek out the place’s speculated to be residing, solely to find she is lifeless or lacking.

What’s in Zhang’s cage?

It’s greater than probably that the creatures inside her cage are hybrids. In specific, hybrids which are part-predator.

As the collection has deviated from the comics, the creatures within the cage could possibly be ‘The Dog Boys’ a bunch of cannibalistic dog-hybrid youngsters who had been cruelly raised to be nothing greater than weapons.

If Zhang goes after Gus, then anticipate her to deliver her ravenous hybrid pets to hunt them down.
