I just re-read the entire story to date. It's been a number of years since I went through the series. It hangs together well. I got to the end of the of issue #30 and you mention, JB, that when you went back to Next Men it might require a change of title for the series. Can you explain that a bit more? Did you have a title in mind? Is this still a potential element for the series currently? Apologies if this has already been covered recently.

One other question that came to mind as I read the series again was about Bethany and the others before they woke up from the Greenery. Were their powers fully triggered at that point? The reason I ask is because as the story moves along we see physical changes occur to Bethany, Nathan and the gang but only certain aspects right away. Bethany has the razor sharp hair as soon as she is awake but the fading skin pigmentation and longer nails aren't there. With the Next Men locked away and her natural tendencies it seems likely she'd be an albino-esque woman right away.

Anyway. Congrats on getting to continue on with the series. It must be like having an itch that you haven't been able to scratch for over a decade.

Trevor, I am not going to address your comments because they are directed to Mr. Byrne, however, I must say this:

Awesome Hawkeye Profile Picture!  (I eschew the term "avatar" with profound distaste for the movie of that name.)

Further comments from the peanut gallery:

"Sathanas's Three Lackeys"

I wonder what will be the final fate of these three men who demonstrated such loyalty to Sathanas?   Will they be rewarded for their loyalty by being allowed to keep their lives and provide further useful service?   Or will they immediately become food?

I think I have my own theory as to the answer to that question.

I will take that as confirmation of my own private theory, which I will not reveal, so as not to spoil it for others.

HA - HA !

Thanks. Hawkeye's my favorite character and the image comes from JB's WCA's run. Seemed a perfect fit for things here.

No insight about the name change, JB?

Obviously, I didn't change the name.

Consistency in Branding.  Good Idea.

Hey, Trevor, nice to see you around.  Mind you, I haven't been too active around these parts for quite some time, but it was a while since I spotted your JB Hawkeye avatar on any of the threads I have caught.

(Sorry for the digression, people, I'll return you to your regular programming now.)

At least one guy seemed to be motivated by a little more than money, but I
may have misread things.
