Sweet I can't wait for the comic to tackle some abusive girlfriend who calls in the Superfriends to gently caress up her boyfriend and they hospitalize some dude because he wouldn't buy his girlfriend a pizza with his rent money

Wait, my bad, it'll be because he's a secret rapist pedophile

With any luck, they'll Jean Grey Furnace back into life (I mean come on fire people, new powers, losing control, he's basically the phoenix) and then we'll actually get the resolution to his character arc that should have happened during this chapter.

Title page opens with a closeup of Alison and Lisa shrugging with the title "Well That Was a Dumb Plan." Chapter 6 starts with Alison coming to terms with the end of the Guardians, having a new roommate and the death of that guy that she didn't like. THE COMIC CAN STILL BE SAVED.

While the story in this chapter was really bad and clunky, the art improved a ton, give it some credit.

I can honestly say I still don't have that much regard for the art. It's functional but among other things facial expressions are still kind of off-putting. Allison's "happy" face a page or two ago comes to mind.

Hello, yes! Is being very good day for posting, no?
Furnace was aware that his powers had been getting stronger, and more difficult to control, but he had written it off as unimportant. Little did he know the true extent of the changes, up until the dam explosion that should have cost him his life. His body was destroyed, but the fire--and Furnace--remained. Now immortal, immaterial, and entirely inhuman, Furnace must face up to an uncaring eternity in which he is unable to touch that which he loves without consuming it utterly.

Nah, it'll be something way more mundane. Moonshadow is now trapping rapists in houses and then burning them to the ground. This is justified, because,

She alerted the authorities before even going after Moonshadow. After the encounter I think she reasoned she can't do much to help and isn't even sure she wants to.
