Starbolts #679: Quality Control Issues

Hail!

    Looks like our heroes are returning to the area of space the Setleth call home! They last visited way back in Starbolts #86 - 88. Since Carter obviously wasn't with the team at that point, she'll have to be the voice of the audience during this excursion. I'm sure she'll have a few snarky comments here and there to make up for her absence in that adventure. 

    I can't say I blame Crystal for having that reaction to having robot duplicates running around doing God knows what. There are just some things that should be sacred. She's definitely going to ask the lizards in charge of that factory to recall the robots or face her wrath.

    At least she's on the right path when it comes to taking care of business on Earth. She's growing up quite a bit because not too long ago SHE would have marched over to the studio and burnt it to the ground. Carter would be there too roasting marshmallows or snacking on popcorn. Carter has no love for the media. So, it'd be cathartic for her. 

    As far as Marcus and Crystal go, I think it was kinda obvious what they got up to last week. I like to think that they also had a discussion about what to do with her newfound confidence as well. She's going to be writing a book and I think that might be the best weapon she has in her arsenal. She'll capitalize on her popularity and the book will take her places. She won't have to rehash the same story over and over and that's a good thing because her story will be out there for all to see.

    Her book might actually help a lot of people now that I think about it. She was sexually abused at thirteen and rose to become Lady Liberty in her twenties. A lot can happen in one lifetime and her book could inspire generations of girls and women. Now that is a weapon the talking heads can't stop!

 Tune in next time when we return to Setleth space and visit Ditalix III! Bring your hardhats! 

See ya next time and May the Fourth be with you!

  1. You'd think the guy who breaks the fourth wall once a year would be more up to date. :)
