BTW, Mxy -- you had bigger plans for Mr. Smith, didn't you? Considering the title of this story, I'd like to see Mr. Smith take a big role in the resolution with Naecken to go with the whole "revenge" thing. I hope Mr. Smith factors into the plans you folks have who are going to be ending this thing. I'll just sit back and read.

Good use of Drag Racer, Grimm. Very funny.

Doc -- good to see Ouch-Man (LOL!) and Download again, though it took me a while to remember which story I'd seen them in.

CJ: If only I could read more of your posts. They're short but very good.

Pro: Good use of dramatic timing! Sorry about messing up that dramatic timing up with my "follow-up" posts... heh... [um....  uh huh! ...  ] [who, me?] Oh well... the sooner this story gets done, the better, I guess.
