Peter and Cosmo are both right in the blast of the explosion, and yet Cosmo appears totally unharmed.
Apparently even explosions do not want to hurt Cosmo.
Quite right.


At least this time the crossover is sort-of relevant to what they do, and has major repercussions for pretty much the rest of the run, rather than two issues of "well, that was random!"

Not to downplay the seriousness of what Quill and Mantis did, but at least he didn't get Professor X involved.
Goodness knows how bug-flark that would've gone...
"Well, I've done it, Mr. Quill."
"Great. Thanks."
"However, I may have turned at least one of them evil."
"Whu-?"
"Bye!"

It's a good thing Moondragon isn't a member yet.

Empath: "Pfft. I could have definitely turned all of them evil."
Peter: "That... that was never a requirement."
