Some battles seem to go on forever. It feels like you keep banging your head against a wall and there’s nothing that happens. Calling a friend doesn’t seem to go anywhere. But there comes a point where the gang gets back together and things happen. Woe to the one that breaks a heel for that will bring about Hell on Earth.
One of the things that I have enjoyed the most in this series has been the intermixing of humour into the fights the characters get into.
