OHOTMU Vol 1 has Real Name: Unrevealed. He is referred to as 'Kallark' in Issue #1 of the 3-issue 1997 Imperial Guard Mini Series - but not sure if it was established before then.

Okay.

Well, at least it wasn't C'Lark K'Ent.

 QUOTE:
Just so no one gets too disappointed, I should mention that Gladiator’s role in all this is significant, but not large.


I'm relieved.

I was having visions of Gladiator attacking the X-Men the same way he went off on the Fantastic Four, and that would not bode well for our little band of not-so-merry mutants!

No, somebody else will be coming to Earth to attack the X-Men. For a little while, at least.

(An interesting aspect of this form of publication, to me anyway, is that I am cheerfully abandoning my original “schedule”. I started out thinking in terms of a twelve issue “arc” for the first year, with my first two part story in 6 and 7. This page-a-day form doesn’t really feel so much like “issues” to me, so I’m allowing the plots and subplots to expand and contract as I see fit. It’s a feeling not unlike what I experienced when the books went from 17 to 22 pages.)

That opening page has me craving some more Byrne Sci-Fi.

Whoa.  I have no idea what is going on, and I'm loving every minute of it!

Ya know, I have lost count of the number of complaints I’ve received over the years from readers who said they had “no idea what’s going on” and saw that as a FLAW in the writing. Just no tolerance for mystery and the building of suspense.

(Reminds me of a young woman I dated briefly in College. She had many charms, but her least charming aspect would manifest every time we went to a movie. Immediately she would start in with “Who’s that? Why is he doing that? Where are they going? Why did she say that?”)

Ha! "Who's that? Why is he doing that? Etc."

ARGH! I've had that...! Am I not sitting here with you watching the movie for the first time?!?!

Reminds me of this bit from "The Simpsons."

Very interesting development with Lilandra!

I love the designs of the space ships and Shi'ar buildings.

As I mentioned back during the sneek peeks of the first issue, that ship is a model I built for this purpose. Wanted to make sure it looked the same from all angles.

Here's two shots from the epilog of the first issue:

I use my Art-o-Graph to trace the images onto the page.

Nice. I love seeing behind the curtain on how you use models in your work.

Also, I have a couple of guesses as to what may be going on. I will wait to see if I am right or wrong.
