    An extremely enjoyable chapter. The trip to the Shee-Yar homeworld has been interesting, and I like the addition of the Red Shirts er, Battle Bitches. The scene with Thugos and Lara was great. I really think you've done a tremendous job taking what's great about his inspirations (though I'm much more a Darkseid fan than a Thanos one) and applying it the Parodyverse's own little continuity. And the part at the end checking in with the EEE cast was as fun as always.


I quite enjoy the Parodyverse's merging of tropes from the mainstream comics but these days I also feel we have to try and add something so it's not just a straight rip-off. Having been responsible for introducing more than a few copies of actual comics characters in my early days on the BZL - Drury, Graham, Hagatha, et al - I feel obliged to try and move them forward when I can.

    Looking forward to more when you're rested and ready.


Well, "rested" was a euphemism for "when I've recovered from being called by the district nurses to drive over to my mother's house since she wasn't answering the door". Having braced myself for the worst it turned out she was just very weak and now she's back staying with us. But it's 3.15am here and I've just been up tending to her, so my sleep patterns continue to be somewhat innovative. My writing patterns are likely to be equally unpredictable.
