Pro, as you can see in my and Gooz solo thread, Eurostar is on his way to La Perdita. At the beginning of the next "actual time" story (that is, the second after the end of the current, if the next is the flashback), Eurostar will be back in the folder.

I haven't brought back Eurostar yet, because I needed time to develop him in his next form: the first stories have presented an Euro that has run away from my hands, becoming (not only for my faults), something a lot different from the character I had in mind when I began the New Universe in the "New Beginning" thread.

Things like him being a christian foundamentalist, the nearly omnipotent powers, or the charismatic presence and the will to start a revolution, are now (or will be at the end of the solo story), a things of the past. Not retconned, but behind him, still part of his story, like his burden for the mess in Chicago, but no more so important in making his character.

In a sense, he will be more like Nemo, the one character I had more fun to write. Just like to make Nemo I took Aquaman, crossed with the true Jules Verne's Captain Nemo, a little bit of Sean Connery and a lot of myself, so Eurostar will be some of Hawkman, a little bit of Nicholas Cage (at last his perennial face of beaten puppy), and a lot of myself, especially in his newfound bond with the natural world, and especially raptors, just like the true me.

So, don't fear, Eurostar will be back soon. :)
