The only thing was that women cannot survive the change, and she spent about a minute huffing and puffing through something that should have killed her. Unless they come back to why it was so easy for her, the budget, time limits, and writing (specifically) for the episode should have considered this for a better payoff. Even if we didn't see anymore transformation detail.

Really, have a look at the graphic novel... it is exactly as how I imagined it from the book. And once more, for a medium-budget series a bit more detail could have been affordable IMHO.
