The two strips so far in this arc haven't had John and Lyn together yet, so it was important for the two of them to "talk it out". Even though that means John is going to screw things up as is the usual for him. I've got to play to a character's strengths people... We'll see what the first part of this arc is about this week as their conversation continues, but it's only part of the entire thing as things are going to get weird as we need to ramp up for the fifth anniversary of ZR on October 26th... and this is the arc that will lead us into the new comic year folks.
