Starbolts #742: Every Ending is a New Beginning

 Hail! 

    As one door closes, another opens. This week we say goodbye to Roger Stevens, the second man to hold the mantle of Iron Eagle. I can't say I'm sad to see him go. Lately, his appearances in the comic have been less than heroic. It's hard to believe he was once a celebrated superhero. Now his reputation is in the tubes and it's up to Jack, the current Iron Eagle, to clean up the mess he left behind. Jack has a huge mess to clean up.

    I do like how we have an insight into the Whitefox kids' personalities when they were asking their mother all those questions. Crystal would be concerned as she has the highest emotional IQ. Carter has the highest IQ and Jack just wants to make sure Stevens didn't try anything. 

    Stevens might return some day. I'm not sure when. We're going to have to take a trip to the Vault at some point and see what it's all about. We know it's a prison for metahumans and so far two people have been sent there. Those being Tornado and Stevens. The bulk of the Legion are there as well including Jack's former best friend, Snake. The joint definitely has its fair share of inmates and there's bound to be more of them in the near future. I don't know if Lancer would be among them. No, I think he went to a special wizard prison.

    Now we get a chance to focus on much more happier times. We have a wedding in two weeks to go to. Well, two weeks in the comic. I plan on having the wedding in Starrbolts #750 and that'll be in September. We just entered August and I'll be sure to have plenty of good stuff coming your way until then!

    Marcus going ahead and working on wedding stuff as a surprise for Crystal was probably a good idea because she would have been stressed out. Now, the happy couple can focus on the trip to Aquarius, the guest list and a few other odds and ends. 

    It should be obvious that Crystal would want to keep her last name. She just got it back when it was revealed she was a Whitefox. I don't think she'll change it any time soon. Even Carter hasn't completely changed her name. She's Doctor Carter Odanta-Whitefox. Once the Whitefox ladies learned who they really were, they were hellbent on keeping those names.

    Anyway, next week we'll be heading to Aquarius. It's been a while since we've been into space. So, let's board the ship and head for the destination wedding. I think this is one destination wedding everyone would want to go on. I mean it's at an alien planet! Who wouldn't want to go there?!

See ya next time!
