Episode 80: Power Pack #62

This is the end....the end of Power Pack! The end of the original series! The final issue! Nothing else .......well...actually......we have a a lot more content....BUT THIS IS THE END!!!! There are tears!!!! There are feeling!!!!! There are rain clouds!!!! RAIN!!!! CLOUDS!!!!! I mean....can you acknowledge the absolute finality of this issue? I mean...it is, except for more content that is coming soon. I guess we should talk about the contend of the book, but we are so sad, we have decided to join Alex, standing in the rain, asking deep philosophical questions. Deep questions that only be answered if you put on a trench coat, stand in a shadow, and brood. Questions like, why is this comic ending and why is Alex still a horse? Sometimes standing in the rain is not enough. Sometimes you need a friend. Sometimes you need a good cup of coffee. And sometimes, just sometimes, you really cannot find any of those things and you are stuck with Reed Richards and some instant Folgers. It happens, and we should not get upset about it. Or....maybe we should get mad about it. I mean, Power Pack is still fighting the Red Ghost. You know, that classic Power Pack villain. Yeah, that is the arch-nemesis I would (not) use for the final issue of a 62 issue run of comics. Forget the Snarks and Boogeyman. Forget about the revenge of Johnny Rival. Make no mention of the Boulder Crusher or Trash! The Red Ghost is where it is at. I am starting to see why Jim is so mad! As we close out on volume 1 of Power Pack....for now....let us gaze into a hazy Alex and think about the good times and friends we have met along the way. Let's try and remember the laughs and joy from issues earlier in this series, And lets be back for more content in a couple of weeks.   To view the art from this issue, check out our website:https://jeffandrickpresent.wordpress.com/2021/04/25/power-pack-62-lo-there-shall-be-an-ending/ Don’t forget to support us on Patreon, https://www.patreon.com/JeffandRickPresent.  We have started to release monthly episodes for our Energizer and greater tiers.
