Poor Pablo. That kid has a lot of power to manage for such a young kid. Who even knows how he processes information or what he feels beyond what a normal mind does.
 
 Carla has such a distinct, real face. She's a really great human addition to the cast and has been since we met her. I miss "real" characters like her.

JB draws some of the best debris.

"...and dramatic!"
 
 I'll say. This is why comics is such a fantastic and unique medium - you can convey a startling change with two silhouettes, a radiating effect involving the panel borders, and no colour whatsoever. I think anything but flat colour in a panel like this would probably *diminish* the effect. 
 
 Needless to say, JB is a master of this "less is so much more" kind of storytelling (I'll say it anyway!)

 That sound effect does not bode well for whichever Magneto that is!

There are times where I feel that JB makes the Friday page extra-dramatic on purpose. But the advanced planning you'd have to do to pull that off...

At least we're at a nice quiet spot in the story to end the week wi--
  No!  Banish that thought.  This is JB as his diabolical best!
  Thank you, sir.

Wow again! Well, to use an expression I seem to return to often here: that was unexpected!I can't wait for Monday either, though since I'm going on a short vacation out of town (and don't know if I'll have internet access), I might do a lot of catching up on Wednesday evening.

As a parent, I feel for Pablo having to face such things that his power is literally bursting.
