SPARKS FLY UPWARD, Page 3

Those who read the team book my other webcomics character, Mindmistress appears in—THE CROSSOVERLORD—are aware that Flickerflame is mentioned as being at the great gathering here given by the being Mindmistress and others call “Ringo”. Yet reality-hopping isn't really Lafferty's style, and being summoned for a multiversal Crisis isn't his, either.

Which is what makes it fun. *Grin*

Most of the story will be in Lafferty's home reality, which at least some designate REALITY: HYPERBOREA, but I wanted to have a few pages where Lafferty is totally out of his depth, and only there because he couldn't resist cracking wise…even to a robot. And believe it or not, this ties directly into to a menace to at least one member of the Next Level—and by extension—all realities everywhere. Honest.

Flickerflame doesn't happen in the same reality as Mindmistress and some other webcomics—the Next Level is quite enough to cope with, and I don't want any potential allies to be able to give Lafferty a hand…but they still are set in the same …multiverse.

Next: Lafferty comments on Ringo's name-dropping. Action-packed! *Grin//* again!
