*as the rest of the FFemmes and Super-C's pile in*
Lester: *choke!* Dev-Em! And that buttcrack-headed chick!
Anti-Lad: That's Anti-Lad, you male fool!
Panel 2
Lester: Great, just great! So Thora's enlisted the aid of you man-haters as well?
Dyke Damsel: Thora??!?!
Anti-Lad: I HATE Thora! She sickens me with her desire to enslave males to fulfill her every whim! She claims to be strong, but she's weak! Weak, weak, WEAK!!!
Panel 3
Incredible Girl: Is she channeling Chet?
Rainbow Girl: We only came here because our arch-enemies the Super-ompanions left the protection of that disgusting planet Thrann.
Panel 4
Taryn: Back off, girlie. Thrann's a lot of fun!
Shaggy Lass: GRAAAAAAAAGH!
Utility Girl: You'd better back off, if ou want to keep your pretty face intact!
*Tenzil and whoever in background as Eve Ares runs by, laser fire chasing her*
Eve: Gangway!
Panel 2
*Tenzil and whoever in background as Azura runs by, firing laser blaster*
Azura: I FELT you, Eve! You were in my mind! I felt you trying to take hold! Little did you know that my space-tiara is more than a fashionable, expensive accesory! It is designed to provide protection from Titanians!
Panel 3
*Eve backed up against a wall, beside a door*
Eve: Well, Azura... you caught me, alright. You were one up on me...
Azura: *her arm can be seen, holding blaster toward Eve* The ruler of Femnaz is no idiot!
Panel 4
Eve: ...But you didn't know that I was three up on you!
*Veilmist, Evillo and Malefico come through door*
Panel 5
*Veilmist and Azura vanish*
Eve: *to Evillo & Malefico* I just adore that Veilmist!
Panel 6
*Veilmist returns, alone*
Eve: What took you so long?
Veilmist: Interstellar teleportation to a world the distance of Femnaz requires many nanoseconds.
Eve: Darling, I was kidding. *sigh* Having one's mind controlled always did damage the sense of humour...
Panel 7
*Tenzil and the huge gang arrive*
Tenzil: You! You're in league with Thora and Evillo?
Eve: Tenzil Kem... you unspeakably handsome devil!
Tenzil: Yeah, so, what about it?
Eve: Surely you'll let a girl explain herself, won't you?

Panel One:
Taryn: Explain yourself... or distract us while you use your mental powers to take control of our minds?
Eve: Wait... I've got no intention of enslaving all of you...
Panel Two:
Mzzgrzz: Never fear! Watch as Mzzgrzz the Magnificent uses his mighty "mind over matter" power to fashion these Lurium mind-helmets out of assorted rusty chains! They should protect us from her mental abilities!
Tenz: Hey... I was hoping to have some of those rusty chains for dinner...
Panel Three:
Taryn: Okay, but how do we know that she didn't just make you think you were creating Lurium mind-helmets, when in fact you were making useless props?
Panel Four:
Big Toes: Millenia of evolution have gifted my race's brains with a significant degree of resistance to mind tampering of any sort. I have detected no pertubations that would indicate mental interference...
Panel Five:
Taryn: But how do you know she isn't just making you think you haven't detected any mental interference?
Tenzil: Jumping fishhooks, Taryn! Can't you see we need her to advance the plot so that we can get to the end of this super-mega-sized final issue blowout issue? Just let her speak, toots!
Panel Six:
Taryn: Do NOT call me "toots", Kem!
Tenzil: Aww... that's my girl!

Eve: LISTEN TO ME! Okay, so Thora, ambassador/ruler of Taltar, contacted me, future queen of Titan and Azura, Queen of Femnaz, about establishing a huge conquering force and taking over the universe and enslaving all men and stuff. She also contacted Glorith, then-ruler of Balduur to join up. The idea sounded great and all at first, but then I realized that I kinda like men, and don't really want to enslave them and whatnot. But I was kind-of in deep by then. So anyhoo, Glorith accidentally got put out of the picture when she lost control of Balduur, but I still had to deal with Thora and Azura. Thora revealed that her first strike would be against Tartarus, where she planned to learn the secret Evillo was keeping-- a secret that had the potential to virtually hand her the universe on a silver space-platter! A secret that also involved planet Bismoll!
Panel 2
Tenzil *to Taryn, whispering*: Look how small her head was in that panel because of all the dialogue!
Taryn: What?
Panel 3
Eve: So, long story a smidge shorter, I planted suggestions into Tiffany's head to get you all here once I realized everything was about to come to a head. Thora had to be stopped but I wanted all the help I could get in doing it. I also had you make that little side-trip to prevent Glorith from getting the credits she would need to buy back her throne on Baaldur. It kept her out of the way, plus she's a child-killer, so, I didn't think you would mind. I've got mental control of Evillo, Malefico, Veilmist and the League of Scantily-Clad Overendowed Vixens. But I swear, I had nothing to do with the team of gay guys, the lesbians and the zombies! Or that advice-giving man. They all just showed up.
Panel 4
Tenzil (to Lester): Did you see her teeny head?
Lester: Ssssh!
Panel 5
Eve: So this is it-- we MUST prevent Thora from using the Miracle Machine to take the universe! That device is too dangerous to be used at all, if you ask me!
Panel 6
Dr. Loy *staggering in*: Dangerous? Space-balderdash! The Miracle Machine loses power after each usage. It might be powerful enough now to create a chili recipe that turns young men into elderly old women, but that's probably about it.
Panel 7
Tenzil: Well, who can't do THAT?
Eve: So, you're saying this was all for nothin--
Panel 8
Thora: SILENCE, FOOLS!
Panel 9
Thora *an unconscious Questar wearing only a pair of frilly panties is held under one of her arms*: Or this cretinous male DIES!
Drura: Yeah. Well, not exactly, but... yeah, Legion cadet.
Panel 2
Tenzil: Pretty awesome.
Drura: Well, it was either they accepted me into their cadet program or I give them all the Rimborian nerve-shakes. Heh heh. You should have seen the HOTties' faces, when I was finally able to get a word in edgewise and tell them I was accepted!
Panel 3
Tenzil: No, I mean you're pretty awesome.
Panel 4
*Drura and Tenzil hug*
Panel 5
Drura: Now you be sure to tell your Mother I love her. And tell your Dad to treat her right! And tell Renkil... well, tell him to lead the HOTties wisely.
Panel 6
Tenzil: Renkil and wisely? Two words I never would have used together before.
Drura: Just tell him!
Panel 7
Tenzil: I will, I will.
Drura: So... Lester and Tiffany made it back safely?
Panel 8
Tenzil: Yeah, back to the Spiffany homestead.
Drura: And Taryn got her Dad back home safely?
Tenzil: Yeah, we're no longer banned from Bismoll, thank Hannah.
Panel 9
Drura: You were sweet to stick around and make sure everything was settled, and everyone was... where they needed to be or going where they wanted to go.
Tenzil: It was the least I could do. I mean, I kinda felt responsible for all of them in a way. And after what happened... well, you know.
Thora: Oh, Eve-schmeeve. You know Taltarians are naturally immune to Titanian telepathy.
Panel 4
Azura: Naturally resistant, NOT immune. For the love of Hannah, Thora-- you don't even realize that you're a completely different person now!
Thora: Reges, darling... be a dove and fetch me a soda. With two cubes of ice and a lotus fruit slice, as thin as you can get it.
Questar: Yes, dear.
Panel 5
caption: And once the Idol of Planet Zentor has left the room...
Thora: You listen and listen well, Azura. I allowed Eve to think she had control of me. What else was I to do with more than two dozen meta-sentients staring me in the face, a KRYPTONIAN among them? Much like the gambler in the ancient twentieth century tune by that overweight bearded male, Thora of Taltar knows when to hold tham and knows when to fold them. There will be other opportunities. And in the meanwhile, I have a comely, well-muscled planetary champion who desires nothing more than to please me.
Panel 6
Azura: I... I cannot believe this...!
Thora: Believe it. Goodbye. And don't contact me again. I'll contact you.
Panel 7
*Thora turning off vidscreen*
Questar: Your soda, dear.
Thora: Mmmm. Reges, love... be a doll and carry me to my office.
