Jeepers! Are Cobalt Kid and Eryk Davis Ester still trapped in the past from when they showed up one month earlier, or have they taken yet another trip to the past? And when *will* they actually travel to the past in the present day?

Something else else tells me this Ancient Greece tag team is going to get convoluted really quickly!

That's my plan! The way I figure it--Cobie and EDE are far too busy these days to be trapped in the past!

Either its a future Cobie and Eryk, or perhaps a past Cobie and Eryk in a never before seen story from their past?

In regards to Omnia:

I've written out the next few parts of my chapters. Following that, I'll probably be sending PMs to EDE, Tamper & Quis on possible thoughts about tying our stories together a bit more (or at least heading in the same direction).

Glad you liked what I did with your character, Deddy! I was nervous about what I'd written because I feared I took too many liberties with him and his powers. I'm happy you approve!

C'mon kids... Bob the Cat can't keep 52 going on his own

I'll post something tonight, Cru...Okay?

Still have all kinda of plans to connect the stories, but just been too busy. I'll be in Chicago from Tues night to Fri, so no posting from me then, but next week I'll renew my goal of bringing the thread to a logical conclusion!

(Still waiting for replies from Eryk and Tamper Lad too...*hint, hint*)

That's cool. It's not so much me that's concerned... it's that cat. He's not the patient type

Hey everyone, i just wanna give some explanation about why i dropped out of the Tag thread.

Back about 6 weeks ago I had a big post ready to go and I was just about to finish it when my laptop experienced the pop of death.

Having been a compy nerd all my life I know this sound to be. The catastrophic failure of a capaciter on the motherboard. Since the computer was out of warranty (Do computers ever fail in warranty?) this meant it was kaput. So having lost that post and my pointform notes about what i was going to do I dropped out. I still need to pull stuff off that 2.5 inch HDD for work too

By the time I felt like posting again i was too swamped to pick up what had happened so unfortunately i probably won't be back. If any one wants to use my threads go ahead.

Tamper, sorry to hear abuot the computer crash. I've picked up a couple of your threads at your suggestion above, so I hope you approve. I plan to at least have Nova Girl be at the forefront of the final battle as we roll along.

Cru & others, I hope you don't mind holding off on the Sol Invictus battle for a bit, as I get to explaining that one. I eventually have an idea for how that will go, and I'll PM you on a way to have our stories meet up.

Thanks for getting Seth back in the story (though I'm a bit surprised he rated space on the Omnia cover?) Hadn't really been able to get online during the daytime, so it's hard to coordinate storylines with anyone. I'll see what I can do for moving him along.

Good to see ya again, Seth!

It just goes to show that we haven't forgotten about your character as Omnia moves toward its finale! Careful reading of the last several posts make it clear the plot is unravelling, and we're heading toward a two-pronged climax. We hope that Seth will be by Helena's (and a handful of others') side as they confront the domestic threat of the Church of the Eternal Void on Legion World while the heavy-hitters of the LMB-proper will be preoccupied with a cosmic threat.

As for Joe-Boy's cover---what can I say? He must be quite taken with your character! And who's to say that one of the heroes of Invasion won't still have a chance to earn his cover billing?

Seth, shoot me a PM if you think you'll be able to get back to posting in Omnia, it's great to see you back!

I have Seth & Helena with my main character, Jailbait Lass, right now and have a basic idea for where I want to take them. We've (those of us still posting) created a basic outline for how the thread will end now as we race to the conclusion. By all means, jump right in, or trust that Seth will be written right!

PS - JoeBoy's cover is BRILLANT! Joey, I also plan on having Kid Marvel have some brillant moments in the finale, so you can also trust me there

Thanks to Cobie and Lardy for continuing this story on. As I PMed to Lardy, I'm back in this now and know exactly where the Rockhoppers are going (and, for that matter, where they've gone ).

I look forward to the rest of this story.

Lardy, I forgot to mention in my PM--after you send it back to me (and if you post your next segment), I have a basic idea how my next 7 or so posts will go, so we can match them up exactly to make it run smoother.

Rocky, I think at this point you could probably fit them in anywhere as RLad and RLass join in.

So is Omnia over? or is there still a plan to get it to 52 pages?

The story proper is over. I think the plan to get to 52 pages fell by the wayside. There are a series of epilogues that Lardy, Cobie and I have planned to tie up a few loose ends and so on. There is one that I've written that involves a rather important transition for both Rockhopper Lad and Kid Marvel. It'll be the second one.

Yeah, Omnia is all finished! I'm thrilled with it too--easily one of my favorite tag team, LMB story, event, etc. that I've ever been a part of, if not my absolute favorite!

A few more epilogues are planned and should be posted shortly.

Then there are a couple of ideas that we've been kicking around for follow-ups that I'll post, which you'll probably really get a kick out of Joey, and I hope you contribute art and stories! (Think 80 Page Giant )...

More to follow when I'm not so busy at work! ...

Congratulations everyone. I look forward to seeing how it ended up.

I don't have any epilogue for anything I contributed, but the events of 52 are spinning into a OneVision that I am currently working on, which will bring in more backstory for the twins and flesh out their supporting cast a bit.

Tamper, I tried my best to tie in all of your, EDE's and everyone's else's subplots (I think we hit on just about every single one in some form or another), so I think you'll be pleasantly surprised and pleased. We made sure to have Nova Girl have an important role in the end (and Tamper Lad and the EGSClub a little earlier).

I highly reccomend Omnia to all! Following a handful of epilogues, which will follow shortly (Lardy is doing the first, then Rocky, then there's room for some more), we'll move on to the next LMB project which should be lots of fun and very easy for people to contribute without being lost in a big story. Basically we're thinking one large thread along the lines of an '80 Page Giant', where each contributer would do a short story (re: a 'one-post story') featurnig a character they love, whether themselves, a gen-car, alt ID, villain, etc. Artists would be encouraged to add some art!

For example, I of course have a Jailbait Lass story planned as a follow-up to Omnia, but I also have some odd stuff I want to throw in that will set-up future stuff. But basically the thread will be one long ongoing one to encourage a larger variety of authors to contribute over time.

You know, before the next major role-play or tag team starts up unexpectedly...

Cobalt & Rocky...

Sorry I haven't written the first epilogue yet. A combination of (very mild) Omnia burnout after that end sequence and a tough week at work has delayed it a bit. I'm sure I'll post it some time between now and Monday at the latest.

Meanwhile, I would encourage anyone who's been a contributor to Omnia at some point to maybe write at least a brief character piece after the second epilogue appears showing how Omnia's events affected their characters. Heck, I'd even encourage someone who never got around to contributing to add a little something! We have a basic structure in mind for the epilogues, but there's plenty of wiggle room.

And I definitely encourage everyone to contribute to the upcoming Giant. As Cobalt said, it will be designed as a showcase for everyone to write short pieces about the LMB Universe and won't involve keeping an ongoing story straight. And it'll be FUN!

John...love your inauguration epilogue! It was absolutely, spot-on perfect!

Why, thank you. *blink, blink*

The memorial service scene was pretty terrific as well.

As is the Hummer Lass sequence. I hadn't noticed that one yet when I first posted.

Love, love, love the epilogues guys. Really, everything so far has been perfect. I've got two ready to go for tomorrow morning.

And I really liked how Quis' Non-Sequitor post worked in there. Very fitting and very cool.
