ROM is acting like a human person.
Brandy Clark, who has been around since issue #1, is getting married to longtime sweetheart Steve Jackson, and it’s making ROM realize how trapped he is by his armor.

This all happens in a crowded church, and it ends up being much to ROM’s benefit because it he reveals the existence of Wraiths publicly for the first time.
