And for those of you out there wondering...
Yes, I knew Max was going to be Stephanie's father when he first appeared back in #968. I've been laying down lots of plot threads over the past year or two and they all should be finally be revealed over the next couple of months.
Oh, and for those of you about to point out that Stephanie and her dad have different last names...that too will be answered.

What a pleasant surprise! For us readers. 😉

Alright, I legitimately didn’t see THAT coming…
Also, I thought Beth and Stephanie resolved their issues after Dave punched Steph. I never thought they would become FRIENDS, but I didn’t think they’d still have the animosity they had since Steph noticed Beth was uncomfortably close to her then-boyfriend. I hope Stephanie doesn’t purposely tank Beth’s new job out of spite. (I also hope Beth can maintain her professionalism and doesn’t ruin her own job)

Well dang. I should have seen this coming (Law of Conservation of Characters in Storytelling), but I didn’t. Nicely done, Eric! 😀
