Well damn, that was a blast indeed, not to mention blasting him all the way away from the club, though to be fair it does give Legion time to set up whatever she was planning so it probably had to happen getting Aries pushed back quite the distance.

yeah, I'm setting stuff up

Time for Kelly to "build up strength and speed in a straight line" and test the limits of that power.

you got it. That happens next page.

Clearly he considered his options, and went for "none of the above".

True

As I can see in the comments, the fact that Aries has been pushed to the dock in the end will allow him to use his mutant power of “build up strength and speed in a straight line" … and I believe that MB got one shot at Aries but it will most likely be his only one!

I am a bit worried about Legion though … and her suitcase.

I guess I'm pretty obvious

Not at all man! There is plenty in your comic and related art that caught me COMPLETELY off guard!!!! Like how it evolved with Gemini and Slaver… or the fact that Basilisk turned out to share the same God complex and supervillain arrogance of Nighmare which eventually led to Cap release her anger and knocking her off … and Virgo’s personality evolution that led her to be the one to kill a villain and learn to come to term with that! Seriously, I am hooked to Zodiac!!!!

To be fair, not everything needs to be a plot twist, and sometimes setup and foreshadowing is genuinely meant to clue the reader in about what's about to happen after all. Builds anticipation rather than suspense is all. We may know some of the broad strokes, but the details (like what precisely is the failsafe) are still a mystery. Like I've heard before "if the reader can follow my story, and have a fair idea where it's going, it means I'm doing something right".

That's good to head. I am dying to show what the failsafe is but in good time.

Oh, He MAD!

Looks like Aries is going to get back into the game. That sounds like bad news for both MB and Legion.

We shall see

I guess we will.

I'm getting vibes from an very old Fantastic Four comic where the Thing shrugged off everything Dr. Doom threw at him and dismantled Doom's armour with his bare hands.

I can't say I'm familiar with that issue. I hope it doesn't end up too similar to that but I don't think it will

Neither do I. You're too surprising to repeat stuff even accidentally. Not that it would be a bad thing either.
It was just the vibe I got

The big guy's lost it, get out of his way!!

\o3o/Oh heck that was awesome!

:V that cannon is more powerful than I first thought.

MB is very powerful. He could physically defeat probably any of the other villains in a one-one-one fight but that is not his goal and he does not want to be the lead though he makes an excellent second in command.

Well he got shaken up and then got over it right away using rage. He might need some therapy....

"Even the stomps from Saurus were nothing to that."

Oh goodness, don't remind me....😋

I hear him shouting like the suicider from serious sam as he charges back

Oof, that was one powerful blast. Aries getting sent all the way to the docks. Damn!
