Yes, the way his death was presented was very strange.
The death scene was basically a still image with CGI blood added, and that was it.

In the book, Fred Johnson has a stroke after a high-G maneuver (he's not killed by Marco).

I guess the obvious question is: How did they manage to let "Alex Kamal" die so conveniently, even though news of his scandal emerged only (AFAIK) the shooting had ended?
Someone found these "pre-controversy" shots of Alex on Luna:

So... is this a new scene or was he deleted via CGI? Looks like the former to me. The background actors seem to be different ones.

That's awesome. Now I need to watch this series. I just don't have much time for TV.

Be patient with it. Very patient.
The first 3 episodes are confusing AF, and you have NO idea of what's going on, or who the players are. Then, it all begins to click.

Ah! See I have watched the first two or 3 episodes more than once now. I keep falling asleep because it's late at night. I might have to initially attack this one during the daytime hours. lol
