Well, that was a fun issue. I’d been intending to introduce Dylan through Ally, Tom and Mac, but wasn’t sure I could get an entire issue out of it. I had originally intended for him to already be one of their buddies already, and just introduce him in passing a few times (which was the plan for Mac too, just some random precog that Ally knows for some reason), but this links stuff together a little better. I’d also been planning on having Mr Perfect and Uncle Sam team up in Las Vegas (Uncle Sam lives on the opposite coast to the Brat Pack, so I had to find a reason to put them together…) for a while too, and that was originally going to be the entire issue (clearly it would have been extended somewhat), but I also didn’t want to leave Ally out again. I was going to leave Fissure out for a little while longer, give me a little more time to flesh out the world for y’all, but I’m itching to get into the main storyline, assuming it all goes to plan…
Thanks for the comments again Maedel, I’m glad you like my new characters. Uncle Sam is this universe’s Captain America, except he didn’t get frozen. He was allowed to continue to be a hero and retire, leaving the world with the legend of Uncle Sam. Dylan is going to be featuring heavily for a while, but will probably become a supporting character in the end.
I’ll be playing ‘Match the Name’ at some point in the issue, with their explanations, but Fissure’s got a story to tell first.
Good luck in your finals by the way.
Later Days,
