I've seen an improvement in Guin's coloring and the quality of his characters' reactions and expressions in these last images, specially that Kal'tsit in the first panel.
Skadi, as sword's owner, was surprised that Kal'tsit was (forcefully) able to wield it and how destructive they can be. Now Doc shows his authority and bragging rights to get on Kal's nerves with stopping said Kal'tsit with mentioned sword. with. clap. catching. blade. barehanded
The fact that Blaze, touted as the strongest guard, seeing Assassin Doc withstand the freakin gravity well generated Kal'tsit's swing without any implants whatsoever, is already a feat in itself.

Brick walls were shat in these bushes.
Well, Doctor is just stopping the sword, not holding it
