#### Main Story

Dylan picks up the gun and threatens the Dark Lord with it to bring Earth back, and also asks about the nature of the portals. The Dark Lord finally gives us an explanation of the portals:

There are two worlds, parallel worlds, there is a power between them stopping them from colliding. Things can sometimes pass both ways through the power. We get wo examples, one of a spoon, one of a sprakly orb. Using the power as a portal makes it bigger, make it too big and both worlds will fall into each other. This is what the Dark Lord wants from it. He has already pushed it within reach of collapse of both realities. Dylan then shoots him.

The Doctor uses a portal to send a switch to Jack to destroy all Hyperions, pushing the power more, but the blast from the Hyperions is enough to severly damage the pyramid.

The Dark Lord states one last portal will make it big enough for both worlds so fall in on eachother, and is about to push the switch when the man interupts him. The man realises this would hurt Finners, and decides to stop the Dark Lord. He takes off his cloak, revealing an exoskeleton, and takes off his mask, revealing him to be Finners's granda, which Riley sees as an epic twist.

Finners's Granda jumps into a tank, and he and Finners reminiss about the past. Finners asks why he wants Riley dead and asks how he's here, as all of the family went to Mars, and that he died, to which Finners's Granda says he will tell him:

In the flashback, Dylan was in bed, Jack wasn't born, and Finners and his Granda were asleep beside eachother, with the rest of the family on Mars. Finners's Granda was awoken by a noise, which was baby Riley. He took off the lid of the tank and peeded in it, but the two fish escaped to the sink, but Finners was too young to remember this now. This is why Finners's Granda wants to kill Riley. Finners then says that he remembers him dying that night, but it is revealed that Riley threw Finners's Granda on the street, where wakes up in a bowl in a nail salon. He then escapes from their and studied to make the exoskeleton and buy a mask, along with finding out Riley is a time bomb. Finners then aks who the Dark Lord is, but Finners's Granda says he can't tell him. They then say they missed eachother and join their tanks together, now being in the same one.

The Dark Lord now takes the opportunity to flip the switch, opening a random portal, but is enough for both worlds to fall into eachother. This opens a mega portal in the sky, and contents from the other world start falling into our, like a table and an entire house, with Earth still ablaze.

The Dark Lord also takes the opportunity to reveal his identity, taking off his skull to reveal himself as a future version of Finners's Granda, who then tries to kill them all before getting sucked into the portal he opened.

The pyramid crashes on the buring Earth, with the cousins and fish surviving an falling on the ground. A TV falls out of the sky, telling them there is no more ice cream, which they need to defuse Riley, but it is then revealed that one cone is left in Russia. There's a lightning strike and a shadowy figure appears, with Dylan thining he is the Dark Lord from the other dimension. He tries to ay who he is, but a table crashes on his head and Dylan runs away, but Riley runs over to him, where he asks Riley for something so he can come back to life. Jack and Dylan discuss how to get to Russia, with no one knowing, then Riley flies over and there is a big explosion. They decide they need to stop the 2nd Dark Lord, but once again his reveal is inerupted by the Doctor Landing, and telling the friends to get in. The TARDIS losses control as the Earth starts cracking, and the shadowy figure says the collison helped him escape from the void, and that he is the Trickster, with the issue ending with the hous from before, along with a chair, aan alternate moon and an alternate Statue of Liberty falling from the sky around them.

#### Next Time

We get a small version of next issue's cover.

## Characters

* Dylan Marshall
* Riley Doherty
* Jack Doherty
* Finners
* Finners's Granda
* 12th Doctor
* Hyperion (3)
* Woman
* Newsreader
* Alternative Moon
* Trickster

## Mistakes

#### Errors

* Many more spelling mistakes
* The alternate moon is scribbled out and redrawn in his first frame.

#### Continuity Errors

* When the Dark Lord is first shot, his head is the same as it was before, but net time we see him it has his brain exposed, and his exoskeleton is different from after he is shot too. His spine again changes after the reveal of his true identity.
* Despite the Dark Lord having Finners's Granda in the skull, in issue 1 when we see inside his head, his brain is not simply part of his mask, therefore no room for him.
* The explantion for the portals doesn't match up with their use in issues 1 and 2.

## Notes

#### Continuity

* Once again Riley's shirt does not change expressions, in fact has the exaxct same one as last time, but still it is not the end of it changing.
* Excluding flashbacks, Finners has the speech format of >speech< 1/11 times, and only the first bubble too. This gives a frequency of 9% compared to issues 1 and 2 having 75% and 63% respectively. Finners's Granda also has this from of speaking with his first unmasked speech bubble, but this is the last one for him, for the issue, and for the entire series, ditching this format forever.
* Again this issue continues directly from the last one and into the next.
* The Apocalypse and FNAF arcs run to the end of the series, while for the most part this is the end of the Dark Lord arc.

#### Facts

* Finners does not have his speech format on the cover of this issue.

#### References

* The Doctor and Trickster are from Doctor Who and it's spin offs respectively.
* Jack saying "boo! I hate this chanel" is a reference to Spongebob Squarepants.
