You know, it's a sad general rule in comics that unless they're 'classic', supporting civilian characters generally don't last.
But dang it, I really want Carol, Preston, and Helen (and Dox!) back. Together with Max they made for one of the strongest supporting casts I've seen in a comic.

Oh who am I kidding I want Dr. Morlo, Evil Eye, Rolly, Mike and Wade too!
