So what does having the power of the Beyonder feel like? Like having a dick. Every guy knows what this feels like. To the rest, I'll have to explain: We guys are not in total control of our dicks. It gets hard when it wants to, not when we want it to. The reverse is also the same. Sometimes you "need" it but its not there. It has a mind of its own that tends to override our brains, not all the time, but it happens.
This is exactly what Dr. Doom is with the power of the Beyonder. He keeps referring to the power inside him rising or ebbing. You just know he's barely in control. I think this is all very brilliant Mr. Shooter.
Don't miss the excellent panel sequence when the Enchantress goes into Volcana's bathroom and summons up a water elemental - a sexy water elemental - to do what amounted to a recap of the recent goings-on in Secret Wars.
As Secret Wars concludes, this one big story could lead to other very interesting stories. Let's check out some of what we are left with :
- Klaw is recreated and given a massive power boost that might or might not have been cancelled out by the return of the Beyonder.
- Molecule Man's limitation and hesitation about his power has been removed - he can now affect organic and inorganic matter and is not afraid to use his power.
- Enchantress takes a chancy mystic teleportation run that may or may not see her back in Asgard.
- Colossus returns to Kitty after having an affair in Battleworld.
- The Thing stays in Battleworld (start of The Thing series).
- She-Hulk joins the FF (those incredible Byrne issues).
- Spider-Man starts realizing that his new costume is not what it seems (Venom).
- Dr. Doom stripped of stolen power and returned by the Beyonder, with Klaw, to who-knows-where.
- Lockheed comes back with another small dragon who also returns to Earth.
If you're missing the War, it doesn't have to be over. You can keep coming back to it in the pages of Secret Wars! Thank you Shooter and Zeck.
