This issue starts by resolving the “which Kyle is which” story, confirming that Kyle Richmond is dead–killed by Overmind, inadvertently.
Then, it’s a very fun and crazy story.
On the way home from the Overmind adventure in issues #112-114, Beast, Gargoyle, Val, and Namor end up in a Suessian dimension. It’s a wild and very, very fun issue. Inconsequential, but lots of fun. For example, Namor swims in a sea of Stawberry Malted. The team has to help the weird creatures who are going through an oppressive war. Then, Namor finds out what the cause of the war is…
Here’s how it ends.
Also: Another Elf with a Gun sequence. Love these.
I’m happy YOU enjoyed all that idiotic “murderous elf” bullshit. I myself do not appreciate having my time wasted, and that is precisely how I feel about the Defenders’ idiotic eight-year long “murderous elf” sub-plot, which simply grew out of Steve Gerbers’ bizarre need to prove to the world in general, and Marveldom Assembled in particular, what an off-the-wall writer he was. If I need abstract, offbeat, off-the-wall whacko bullshit to read, I will simply resort to the “also-ran” publishers, like Dark Horse, or Comico, or Image. Next issue’s “all romance” issue was fun, however- I kept hoping that the Sub-Mariner would help the Valkyrie “let her hair down”, a little bit, so to speak, and boy, does she need to. It’s probably been a few thousand years since the last time Thor did it for her/to her, and the Sub-Mariner is certainly the right Man From Atlantis for the job!
