> > Well, it was a very unusual epilogue, but then I can't say I've ever seen such and undertaking like the Parody War story before, so who am I to tell you what the usual type would be? Either way, this one was a lot of fun.
|
It did sort of spiral out of control and drag a number of devastatingly powerful adversaries in to make guest appearances. I blame the new Shaper of Worlds.
> Although I did get devoured by a loathsome elder monster. And more devoured than usual, apparently. It was nice to see some concern about that on the part of the EEE crew. Well, most of them, anyway. I'm not paying for that survival harness.
|
Really the plot just said: "Vizh gets zapped to another dimension to bring back the Shoggoth." I had no idea that Nyarlurkhotep was waiting there until Vizh arrived, and I was surprised again when the Shoggoth decided to erase Vizh to get the Apostate back. Ah well.
Also, if I ever get to finish "Untold Tales of the Lair Legion versus the Phantom " I'm not responsible for what happens the the leader and deputy of the Lair Legion in that.
> I have no idea what a struggle between Nyarlurkhotep and the Apostate would look like, but then I suppose the whole point was that I wasn't around to see it anyway. Xander seems to have a pretty good strategy for such things, really.
|
I imagine it would require a good deal of posturing and many monologues.
> And speaking of which, clever him assembling his own angel team to deal with matters while he's away. Now they just need a Bosley, and they're all set. Provided the Hell Lord they pissed off doesn't get back at them first. Although, after an introduction like that, I'm not sure why that demon lady would be eager to run across them again.... but then these villain types just don't learn.
|
Had poster-Whitney been back to posting as she once indicated she might be then Sorcy was going to be back in the Legion at this point as the Sorceress Supreme.
> Just as Epitome explained in rather dramatic fashion to the Doomherald. A fun sequence there... very satisfying to see a big cosmic baddie just pummeled into submission.
|
I was going to save the Doomherald for fifty issues or so, but it became apparent that the escapees would go to free him, and then it became apparent that the Legion would really have to take him down somehow, and then it became apparent that the team would have thought this through after their last problem.
> Can't say I approve of the whole "Death Before Dishonor" choice that the Avawarriors made, but then better them than the rest of the Earth.
|
Lots of people are going to cry conspiracy there. At least the Skree and the Skunks will approve of you.
> The Mr. P and P-Jr. scene was just as entertaining as the physical beat-down Epitome delivered. Now if only I could convince him to give that same kind of treatment to this "Harry" fellow...
|
Has Harry actually done anything terribly bad so far?
> So... There's this Carnifax guy around, and apparently we have to call him "Mister". I guess it'll be a while before Mr. Skinner and Mr. Flay get what they have coming to them. And really, this Ms. Peel doesn't sound much better. I'm thinking we had better recruit a Mr. Skin-graft before it's too late.
|
I found these to be quite fun baddies, so I'll want to give them another outing or two sometime.
> I look forward to what comes next... whatever that may be! Excellent job, and kudos once again!
|
LL-wise, the next things I need to cover are:
* Vizh, Miiri, and Glory heading to Caph to retrieve the Juniors, and what happens next.
* What the rest of the LL (all 7 of them) get up to against a mystery villain while that's going on.
