This month we're flashing back and kicking it down under as the spotlight falls on the Wallaby and his own past downfalls. Lazarus digs deeper into the mysterious Otterwax company and finds more than he bargained for, whereas Hoshi and Stampede work on finding enough evidence for their own investigation on the Boy in the Mirror. Wisp proves to be more infuriating than ever, much to a very exhausted and downtrodden Stampede's dismay. Fortunately for her, her friends are there to help.

Russ, Stampede, Lazarus, and Wallaby return from their trip in the Multi-Dimensional Hole only for Lazarus to go on another trip down memory lane as he runs a secret autopsy for the stolen cyborg taken from Wallaby's music video shoot he stuffed in Russ' fridge. Mr. Nobody gets a lucrative new deal and goes Goth, while Wallaby begins to forge his own path with his fame.

Sat, 15 Aug 2020 12:00:00 -0400
The Wallaby kicks off the music video shoot with the help of an oddly familiar stuntman, J.M. Reyes, but the stunts and thrills get interrupted by goo-slinging goons and drills! Hoshi falls a few flights and catches up with Boogie, who has a new assignment for her. She, Lazarus, and Stampede get stiffed at a deli and confront an even stiffer Abrahan about the "boy in the mirror". After they all face battles, mysteries, and the tediousness of bureaucracy, some go their separate ways, and some prepare to face one last thing: the Multi-Dimensional Hole.
