Cut from the penultimate page of Issue 10, spanning two adjacent cockpit panels as Rare Robot's escape ship peels away from Burn Island. Atom Slipps registers alarm at the unexpected heading while Meg-9X7 grins with the satisfaction of her defection — her "YEAH, I HELPED!" clipped to just its final syllables at the panel seam. A connected clipping to this issue's escape-sequence pages, capturing the exact moment the trio's uncertain new alliance kicks into gear.
