SW10/WWW: Powernaut 2008 #24-27: The End!

[Scott Eiler]

That's right, we have come to the end of the Reality House 2008 series, 
the end of the story arc Powernaut 2005-2011, *and* the end of a major 
character in the series.  I'm observing the occasion by releasing the 
last three 2008 strips (#s 24, 25, and 27) today.

Fear not, though.  New stories are coming, as soon as I'm ready to go 
backward in time to the 1990s - and even beyond.  Happy New Era!

Bonus Section: Commentary from Wyatt Ferguson!  Aftermath

We now know our master villain to be the Strategos, an ancient 
contemporary of the galactic warrior Zenobia. The Strategos secretly 
*sponsored* this Reality House TV show, and provided most of the 
excitement! He thereby made some money. I guess he really *is* strategic.

Chas Speed, that lovable loser, did about one night of jail time. Then 
he got charged with public disorder, which was the most the Paris 
authorities could charge him with. He promptly skipped bail and left the 
country.

Boom Chick and Hard Falcon were trapped within Capture cards for a 
while. The Strategos was eventually able to break them out of the cards 
- but then he was left with plain old playing cards. The power of those 
cards lies within Capture himself. He can use new cards any time he 
likes; he merely likes to play with a full deck.

The soldiers presented a pathetic but inspiring spectacle. The
hospitals were crowded with sick and wounded; the walls were
gradually crumbling under incessant shell fire, yet that garrison
of heroes remained undaunted.

It was as Buck said, "just as if they had been Americans."
