Gilda And Meek #8 "Enter Tork" Special Edition (Un-Iverse #8)

In the final issue of Book One, the Piranha returns home (in a rather anticlimactic fashion) as the heroes and Gabrielle are desperately forced into attacking Augatha's Fortress on Mount Crushmore head-on before they ever planned or wanted to. But their survival takes a backseat to their shock (and cynical delight) at revelations and dirty, embarrassing secrets from Gabrielle's past nobody ever suspected. In the meantime, meet Augatha's second in command, Tork, for the first (last?) time, and see her come face-to-face with the Conduit! A lot of questions are answered in the final Gilda And Meek issue for awhile, and a bunch of new ones are raised in the meantime! Can the Piranha repair his relationship with Dr. Raggleworth? Can Gilda put aside her rage and work with Gabrielle for the common good? And will Augatha's nasty head-fakes on an increasingly confused and frustrated Gabrielle actually WORK, since her arguments are actually TRUE? Plus Bernadette confronts Augatha for the very first time! It goes about exactly as you'd predict. All this, and we also finally learn once and for all the secret reason Gilda is cool! (That last bit still cracks me up.)
