Well, I wasn't sure how they were going to pull it off, but they end up pulling their fat out of the fire. Last issue ended with Lady Styx absorbing everything around her, and using it to create a massive body for herself. Vril, Tigorr, Broot and Elu are now running for their lives. But then they stop to think. The bigger it gets, the harder it's going to be to take down. So maybe they should just let her absorb them, and then fight it from the inside. It turns out to be a great plan. They go in all the way to her heart, which transforms all the matter it's absorbing, and is made up of the 4 women carrying the heartstones last issue. Well, 2 women, Nimbus and Lianna, 1 guy, Darkfire, and a silicon computer brought to life, Silica. Since Silica manifests itself in the form of a woman, because it's trying to please it's only true love Vril, he uses that against her and starts talking about feeling. It's enough to make her lose her concentration, and therefore her grip on the matrix, and he can pull her out. Well, with one out, the whole thing starts to come apart. Lady Styx tries to fight back, but the combined might of all the participants is just to much for her. And finally as she's nearing death . . . Nimbus eats her. Yuck! But, alls well that ends well. Vril returns the heartstones to OA, with Lianna. Vril and Silica get on with their domestic life. Apron strings and all. And Tigorr makes up for lost time with Nimbus. So I guess things are as back to normal as they'll get for this group of characters. Hopefully we'll see them someplace soon.
