This is the final issue of this particular run of the series and it is odd. As we start reading comics from the 70s and different era, it seems like in the past, Marvel started a new series on bi-monthly status. And when there are legs in terms of sales, then they switch to monthly. And then there are those where a comic has two main characters until one is proven to be able to carry an ongoing ... but somewhere along the line everything became monthly. And the trend is reverse so if sales drop, it becomes bi-monthly and then they put crap artists onboard ... pretty much trying to kill the series, eh?
If you just check this cover and compare to earlier ones, you will see, even for a cover, Marvel didn't want to pay someone to do it attractively. So this mega downward slide ran for nearly a year in the life of the Pack
The good thing is since its cancellation the Pack did come back as cute cuddly kiddie comics as well several times and then Alex made appearances in New Warriors and Julie and others popped up in other series. So it seems that there is interest and just need someone to take a risk on them
Here, basically we find out that Alex due to something going on with the Pack inheriting Powers from Kymaellian horse like aliens transforms into a horse (what the fuck). And with the rest of the kids worried too. The parents finally found out over the course of the past issues and there is really no other choice but for the Power kids to get their alien craft, Friday to take them to the Kymaellian world to find a solution. And that's the end of this ... so basically leaving room open for what comes next ... and as part of the farewell, the kids say goodbye to Franklin as Franklin has to stay on Earth with his parents in FF ... bad artwork, rushed storyline, crap cover ... bad ending ... sigh!
And we used to be such fan even joining a fanclub!
