Okay.
After a quick re-read of the pertinent passages, as of 7S:Z:3, Nehbs has put down the cauldron to attack Misty and Zee. There's some very weird and confusing shit in SK: 3, though, as a cop seems to be urging someone else to warn the Don, although this guy is wearing shades and so, possibly, is not a cop, but rather one of DV's men stationed as some kind of Sheeda lookout.
It's possible that somewhere between now and 7S #1, someone puts DV in the cauldron and, because of something related to the secret of Ali-Ka-Zoom and The Newsboy Army, this is some kind of essential ritual that needs to be performed in order for Gloriana to truly control the cauldron. After all, Spyder doesn't say, "The cauldron must be at the Villa" after the tracker goes off. He says, "The cauldron's ours!"
It's possible that we'll see DV's soul yanked from the bus when someone chucks him into the cauldron as per Gloriana's plans.
I'm not ready to cash in all my chips yet, as there's still so many books left to be written (not to mention, four issues involving an escape artist who uses black holes and presumably has access to Boom Tubes and thus can make a whole lot of things happen [and, conveniently, retrofit any mistakes that might have been made in the first half of the storyline]) but still, if this is just an inconsistency, then it is troubling indeed.
But George has got the benefit of the doubt. For now... |
