"Mark my words! This drill will open a hole in the universe. And that hole will become a path for those that follow after us. The dreams of those who have fallen. The hopes of those who will follow. Those two sets of dreams weave together into a double helix, drilling a path towards tomorrow. THAT's Tengen Toppa! THAT'S Gurren Lagann! MY DRILL IS THE DRILL THAT CREATES THE HEAVENS!" - The Digger
We walk on the path to Secher Nbiw. Though hard fought, we walk the Golden Path.

Imra showing more self-awareness than Teen Jean did the entire time Bendis wrote her.
Rogol Zaar...I dunno, just make him Persuader at this point.
"In the face of all Rogol Zaar did, the child's direct and only response was galactic peace"
I love that quote.
How could that idea *not* inspire a galaxy and create a near myth thousands of years down the line!? It's beautiful and needed right now. The way Bendis wrote it supports the idea well too. All the galactic leaders-- even Clark-- are focused grudges, past slights, and politics, yet the world is falling down around them. Once again, even Clark was at one point ready to die in the Phantom Zone and call that the culmination of why he was saved *just* to beat Zaar. He later even had to be talked out of going back because there was still a world that needed him.
The more I think about it, the more I love the absurdity of the child in the room being the only one keeping their priorities straight because he's relatively not weighed down by the largely self imposed and inflicted entanglements that come with being an adult. It's mythic, but o-so relevant.

Ryan Sook deseves more credit for the incredible artwork he does each issue. Can't wait to see what book he does next. I'll miss Jon being on the legion if this is the end of his adventures already.

This definitely felt like Bendis decided to wrap up several plot points extremely quickly.
"Oh, BTW, White Witch is Mordru's daughter!"
