Hail!
Wow, there's a lot going on in this week's comic! We start off covering the fallout of Ellie saving the world from Kyodon's wrath. She needed a friend to talk to and who better than the team's resident therapist, Angela? The poor girl already has to deal with the fact that her mother, Elisabeth, was the head of a terrorist organization. Now she has to deal with how her mother summoned Kyodon and had her cause problems for Ellie and her friends. That's a bit much for a teenager, isn't it? At least she's in good hands with the Starbolts. They'll help her out!
Next we have Crystal talking to her mom about Ruby/Masque. She had a bit of a crisis concerning her name in the wake of everything. Andrea reminded her of her grandmother who we last saw in Starbolts #614 helping her other great-granddaughter repair her soul. The details of that episode are coming soon. Trust me. At least Crystal is now at peace with her name since it no longer means "crystalline skeletal specimen 001". Charming name Terra Nova came up with isn't it? Rolls right off the tongue.
Crystal definitely enjoys seeing her parents kiss and everything because she never saw the Arronfelds kiss. As far as she knew they were in a loveless marriage. If it ever really was a marriage. You have to remember that Crystal lived in a fake farm in a fake town. Chances are good that the Arronfelds weren't really married. Crystal likes seeing them kiss because it reminds her that she was a product of love and not the science experiment she grew up thinking she was.
And to that end we have Stan doing everything he can to protect his daughters. He wants to give them the life they never had and a life where they don't have to fear outside forces disrupting their lives. It was bad enough that Terra Nova caused them so much pain. Now he wants to nip the next problem in the bud by taking on the Order of Korun. Changes are coming to the Order in the wake of Cassandra's death and heads are gonna roll!
Stay tuned!
