Panel 1
Mzgrzz: As you know, no sound can travel in space, so space-whales communicate by telepathically projecting "songs" to one another...
Panel 2
Mzgrzz: This device, which I have constructed by rearranging the atoms of simple stones, will allow my mighty mind to replicate the songs of space whales, and "project" them to the mind of the Super-Moby Dick...
Panel 3
Mzgrzz: Everyone should stay clear in case this doesn't work! Hannah only knows how the Super-Moby Dick will respond if I've programmed in the wrong song...
Panel 4
Mzgrzz: It seems to be working! I'm projecting a warning to stay away from this planetoid, and the Super-Moby Dick appears to be leaving!
Panel 5
The Super-Companions: Hurray! Yay for Mzgrzz!
Panel 6
Mzgrzz: Don't celebrate yet, my friends! Anti-Lad's spaceship is landing!

Panel 1
Anti-Lad: Foolish super-companions! You may have been safe from us on your all-male paradise of Thrann, but in open space we have the advantage! And once it's greatest champions are destroyed, Thrann itself will be next!
Panel 2
Lester: Popping hotties! Didn't I just go through with this with that Thora chick?
Panel 3
Anti-Lad: You know Thora of Taltar, sissy male? Bah! Her foolish matriarchal alliance will never work! The crazy woman actually wants to enslave stupid males to do her bidding! Only the total elimination of men is acceptable! Starting with all of you!
Panel 4
Anti-Lad: Attack my Fatal Femmes!
Lester: Oh, jeebus!
Panel 5
(The Fatal Femmes attack!)
(Rainbow Girl projects a rainbow at Shower) Shower: Eek! I'm vulnerable to the light force of a rainbow!
(Dyke Damsel punches Splash) Dyke Damsel: Refusing to use your powers, eh? Well, my fists will prove as deadly as my ability to control your liquid form!
(Shaggy Lass pulls off one of Treehugger's limbs!) Shaggy Lass: Rrrrargghhh!
(Utility Lass morphs into some sort of weapon and shoots at Mzgrzz!) Utility Lass: I can change form faster than you can morph other objects, Mzgrzz!
(Anti-Lad presses a button on her visor) Anti-Lad: Don't think for a second that you're safe, Shadow! One blast from my visor and the particles of your bodies will loose what little cohesion they have left!

Thought caption: Well, I see this is going badly for the Companions. I wonder why Oprah disappeared right when the action started? Maybe he had to clean his monocle. Anyhoo, guess I better do something about this...
Panel 2
Lester: This solid silver platter will deflect the rays of your visor, Anti-Lad!
Panel 3
Lester: And hurling it at Shaggy Lass will stun her temporarily!
Panel 4
Lester: My Venturan Walking Money will swarm over Rainbow Girl!
Walking Money: Meep! Meep! Meep!
Rainbow Girl: NooOOOoooo!
Panel 5
Lester: Even Utility Lass is vulnerable to the vapors of this Gas Money!
Panel 6
*throws a gold necklace bolo-style*
Lester: Looks like you're all tied up for the moment, Dyke Damsel!

Panel 1
(Tenzil's suite)
Tenzil: Yep! I'm sure Lester'll be back in a couple of days! He's an important part of Kem Family & Friends, you know! Without him, it's kind of just Kem Family & Friend!
Panel 2
Taryn: Tenz, we still don't know why Evillo was assassinating anyone who occupied your Senate position. Until we find out, I'm not certain that you aren't still in danger...
Panel 3
Tenzil: Jumping fishhooks! Look, Evillo's deposed, his weird father and ex-wife aren't in any position to bother me! Why would anyone else possibly want to hurt me?
Panel 4
Taryn: My point is, unless we know why they wanted you dead, we can't know who else might share their goals.
Tenzil: Maybe you do have a point...
Panel 5
(Tenzil's omnicom beeps)
Tenzil: Hmm... what's this? A message? Maybe it's from Lester or Renkil!
Panel 6
Tenzil: Cancelled! We've been cancelled!?!
Next issue blurb: Next up, Tenzil gets down to business! Senate Business!

I reread the whole thing last night and loved it! I even think the off-panel defeat of Evillo/Malefico can be used in our favor upon the inevitable return to Tartarus!

This issue was definitely the easiest to write, and I think the best we've done so far! We've both got Lester's character down so well that what he does next just seems to flow naturally!

MATTER-EATER LAD #7
PAGE ONE
Panel 1
(Several super-heroes are pinned down by laser fire behind a steel wall, one, a female, is injured)
Caption: The planet Duar
Key Kid: Nell's unconscious, but I think she's okay...
Weight Wizard: They've got us pinned down pretty good... I don't know how we'll get out of this...
Panel 2
Itch Witch: My spells don't seem to work on them!
Took (a Durlan): I don't think they're living beings, Itch Witch! My antennae scan them as non-living androids!
Panel 3
Voice coming from the Wall: I don't think I can hold much longer...)
Panel 4
(A massive blast hits the wall, which begins to change form)
Multi-Maid: Oh no!
Panel 5
(The wall changes form to become a now-unconscious Blockade Boy; the other heroes scatter as they have now lost their protection against the laser fire, Itch Witch is hit by fire, Multi-Maid splits into three)
Panel 6
(The rest of the heroes fall before the onslaught; all except Took, who has disappeared)
Panel 7
(Several Nardo androids can be seen, their backs to the reader, inspecting the carnage)
Android: We have captured this group of metahumans. We will be bringing the prisoners home, master.

Dev-Em: Are you certain, Lester? One hundred percent positive?
Lester: I've never been more certain of anything in my life. I want to go with you, Dev-Em!
Panel 2
Dev-Em: You realize I have no idea when I might make my way back to Thrann... or Bismoll... or your birth-planet Earth, either. Who knows when you will get to see your family... or your friends again? You would be giving up much.
Panel 3
Lester: Family? Friends? Feh! The only thing I'll be giving up is lonliness. My transuit is on, Dev-Em. I'm ready. BEYOND ready!
Panel 4
Dev-Em: Then let my journey continue! And let OUR journey begin!
Panel 5
*Dev-Em, his arm around Lester, blasts into the sky. The Super-Companions can be seen below waving farewell*
