 Hail! 

    I haven’t really decided where the Vault is per se. But, it is a nice prison for criminals with superpowers regardless of wealth and prestige. If you do a crime and you happen to have superpowers, you’re usually sent there. That’s the place where criminals who try to take over the world go. Super-powered henchmen like Tornado and the rest of the Legion go someplace else. That’s why he was able to get out when he did. The Vault is home to some seriously tough baddies who are now far from society. Ruby will have one friend there at least. Though, I don’t think she’d be too happy to see her.

    After this trial, I think that Mr. Stevens will be facing a lot of questions and will potentially be disbarred after allowing his client to manipulate him like that. It’s a good thing the judge wasn’t so easily swayed. Then again, I don’t think Ruby would’ve risked using her powers on the judge when there are so many Starbolts around. That wouldn’t be a good look and would probably make her look bad. So, she played it smart for now. It’s just too bad the evidence was so strong. She had no case and ended up wasting everyone’s time with her crocodile tears.

    In any event, the trial is over and now the Starbolts can focus on trying to find Iron Eagle. We’ll be catching up with M’anta’s team next comic and then deal with that whole mess. I get the feeling they’ll be needing Jack’s help after all. Now that the trial is over, Jack is free to resume his Iron Eagle duties and bring Steve in. Let’s home he comes quietly. Nah. We know he won’t.

   See ya next time!

 Hail!

    I’m sorry that there was no comic last weekend. I caught the human malware aka Covid and was out of commission. I had this comic all scripted. But, I couldn’t sit up long enough to actually work on the thing. It’s just as well. It gave me time to think of some edits and take care of a few odds and ends that are coming down the pike for our heroes. We’ve definitely got some surprises coming!

    Back to this week’s comic. Here we have Crystal amassing a team of her greatest defenders. Each one of the people she selected knows her story inside and out and will help her win the day. They’re her closest friends and family members. With a group like that, how can she fail? The group consists of her therapist, her boyfriend, her siblings and her doctor. Yeah, I’d say she’s got quite a team here.

   Speaking of teams. M’anta and his crew went on the hunt to find Roger, the slightly crazy Iron Eagle. Will they find him or will he prove to be more than a match for our heroes? Time will tell. For now we’ve got this case to win and win it they shall!

 I mean sure Valentina just got her law degree. But, that’s okay. She needed a good first case and this is just as good and as worthwhile as any!

See ya next time!

 Hail!

    Well, we knew going right to the Department of Metahuman Affairs with that evidence wasn’t going to be that easy. At least we know for certain that Ruby had been telepathically manipulating her lawyer. AND we know that he isn’t a DMA lawyer. Just one she personally hired. I’m with Jack. I bet he’s a former Terra Nova agent. It wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest.

We’ll be dealing with what’s been going on with the second Iron Eagle soon enough. We’ve just got this current storyline to deal with. But, let’s recap Roger’s life up to this point.

    Roger was the leader of a team of heroes called the Guardians and he took up the mantle of Iron Eagle and used the name while Andrea became Lady Liberty. For years he was one of the planet’s greatest heroes. He got into a fight with one of his old enemies, the Jade Skull and he implanted his consciousness into our hero with the help of the witch, Zarantha.

    Under the Jade Skull’s control, Roger destroyed the Guardians’ home, killed several of his teammates, captured Jenna and Firaxil and performed hideous experiments on them. Jenna and Firaxil eventually recovered from the damage he caused but the damage was done and Roger went into self imposed exile once he was restored to his former self. It also didn’t help that he unknowingly had one of Carter’s clones as a teammate. Sufficed it to say Roger’s life has been in a downward spiral since Starbolts #240, a comic that came out almost ten years ago.

    Andrea and the others eventually found him and offered him a teaching position at the academy. Things were pretty quiet until now.  Now he sees Jack and Crystal as threats to America. What the catalyst was remains a mystery. It might have something to do with the events of Starbolts #665. Either way, the Starbolts will have to deal with his newest problems after this trial is over.

 The poor guy’s life is gonna come to a head soon when the current Iron Eagle comes face to face with his predecessor. But, that’ll have to wait for another day. We’ve got this trial to go to!

See ya next time!

 Hail!

    This week’s comic deals with the aftermath of last week’s comic where Crystal destroyed the “farm” she grew up on. I put “farm” in quotation marks because lord knows that wasn’t a real farm. They didn’t grow anything and there was barely any livestock. It was a farm in name only. But, that was the least of that place’s problem. It clearly evokes a bad memory for her and Crystal was already stressed out over Ruby’s current antics. No one is mad at her. However, the court of public opinion may see things another way. In the end, I don’t think she’ll care much about their thoughts on the issue.

    Marcus and Crystal had a great long talk when she got back. I totally see him waiting for her when she returned. They went to their apartment and proceeded to talk for hours about her panic attacks and Cody. He obviously knew what Cody did to her. They’ve discussed it many times. However, they never really talked about the cause of the first panic attack. Let’s just say it wasn’t pretty and is definitely not safe for this comic. I’ve gotten close to the line a few times. But, this is one line I can’t cross. It was pretty horrible.

    At least our heroine is in good hands with her siblings and her other loved ones. I see her going to Jack and Carter whenever there’s a problem. I even see her going to Marcus when she needs to let out some steam, too. The three of them suffered so much at the hands of Terra Nova. I think they’ll need each other more than their parents when dealing with Terra Nova drama. Though the organization may be gone, the trauma may linger for some time.

    I think Crystal will be okay in the end. She has a great support system. At least now she’s ready to take Ruby down once and for all. 

See ya next time!
