I'd love to say that it all came roaring back to me vividly, but I think there are points that I will have to review in prior issues. Still, I'm rather shocked at how much of this I retained, or at least was able to follow without trouble.

Really, I have a heck of a time even remembering where all of my own characters had been left... but still, this feels just like old times: A cast of thousands, more subplots than you can shake a stick at, major changes and many levels of peril. I have no idea how you're intending to wrap this all up without another 50 issues, but I'm more than game to see you try.

Loved the Shoggoth in this, as well as the Baroness, and poor Marie having to deal with her opposite being on her own turf. I'm left wondering which Hood retconned Mumph's history, and why. Was it an attack, or was it intended just to get his attention? I suppose the showdown to come with this new guy will give some clues...

Nicely done! Looking forward to the next bit!
