Sketch is just so awesome!

Guys, I have something more to add.

38. The Pre-Crisis Supergirl can be thankful that I spotted her in a comic that was published last year and it can put her back in continuity. At least I hope it does.

43. Harlack can be thankful that he survived Mordru's latest purge on Sorcerer's World.

44. Gigi can be thankful that she's not only survived (an impressive enough feat for a supporting character in a superhero book), but thrived, to become S.P. Chief!

45. Polar Boy can be thankful that he's got his arm back! (Give that boy a hand! No, seriously, 'cause he's only got the one...)

50. Lightning Lad and Saturn Girl can be thankful that their twin sons are intact and neither was transformed into Validus again.

51. Element Lad can be thankful that the introduction of Power Boy and Gravity Kid, plus the lack of Shvaughn Erin, means his sexuality is even more ambiguous than it used to be.

52. Harmonia Li can be thankful that even though she has no codename, no costume, ambiguous powers, and is not sleeping with anyone, she still made it onto the team.

As can the readers.
