Tycho:  Here is the final sequence of Armadeaddon, which you may think of as a kind of bonus stage.  The next time poor diet or exhaustion leaves us without rejoinder to infernal continuity, panel two should provide more than enough raw material.

Maybe it has something  to do with seriously diminished expectations, but &quot;Fantastic  Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer&quot; is an improvement of sorts  over the lifeless 2005 edition.

Tycho:  I uploaded the comic early, as many of you noticed.  I entered the wrong number in the update field.  You may also have noticed that the spelling in these posts has really gone to hell.
