Author Notes:
The cover had us stumped for quite a while, actually. Just had zero idea what would sum up the chapter enticingly, because this chapter very, very un-focused and is more about painting a broad picture about what the consequences for the Marvelous Man arc were for everyone involved. That's sort of the theme of this chapter; consequence. Hell, that's almost the theme of the whole arc.
Eventually Martin came up with this picture which does a lot to sum up the kids' current position in more ways than one. Don't worry, this isn't as sad and depressing as it sounds, but there is this sort of "End of an era" feeling to things. Again, going public changes the dynamic quite a lot. ^^

I don't even know what to think, guess I'll just have to wait and see what happens.
Yeah, I've been wanting to slick up the cover design a little now. Same overall layout on this one, but I wanted to get a little more flashy with it. Ended up mostly basing it on some 70s / 80s Marvel covers, thought it was a good aesthetic to draw from. Admittedly with the next chapter I might end up adjusting the In This Chapter box, I feel like this one might have come out a bit awkward.
So... Yeah. This cover isn't ominous at all, huh?
This chapter marks a definite shifting point in things, since we're starting up the next story arc and ushering in some changes to things in the process. We're really looking forward to the third page of the chapter going up for some particular reasons; that's what the holdup is on the new banner is, it'll be going up along with that particular page. Really curious what people are going to think of that one.
If anyone's wondering, the Heroes part of the logo being blue isn't a permanent change, I just needed to do it in this case for it to show up well against the photo and grass.
