Heroes for Hire #4

This art doesn't work for me at all. Puppet Master need to be drawn exactly as he always does. He just looks too normal here.
We finally get a few pages of Misty's back story and what got her into this mess with the phantom pregnancy and her break up and her time in hospital which in my opinion would have been better suited at the beginning of this series. This appears to be all in Misty's head. She's talking to Danny and seeing the child that they never had.

..and in your dreams your son looks like Taskmaster. Kinda.

It's Puppet Master manipulating her mind in a Matrix style virtual environment where he is making her control the heroes for hire in the real world. Puppet Master is phoning someone and it appears that doing this to her was someone else's idea and he was hired to do it.
But her mind is too strong and she gets out of it. She heads for the door and Puppet Master reveals The Punisher is there to stop her escape. Which makes no sense at all.
This has to be the biggest u-turn from a book doing so well we get handed one of the ugliest nonsensical stories I've ever read. NOTHING HAPPENS, you could some this entire issue up in 3 words: Misty wakes up. At least there's the big reveal of who hired Puppet Master to come. Villains for hire anyone?
