the Autumn Bay Herald's film critic admitted to openly weeping until well past the end credits
I was thinking the General had a kind of Mandela effect going on. Everyone back in the Kogana/Macrobiana/Zamunda/Buranda region all assume he's been dead for years.
ah, I'm pretty sure anyone in any position of power knows he's chilling in Monaco. the people on the ground might not know or care, but some of them might even miss him...
"My war is not over" - nice contrasting callback to what Selene said!

In Canada, "cadet" has two meanings.
The first is the "Officer Cadet" - a person undergoing officer training.
The second is a military-style youth program that is closely associated with the military.
Unfortunately, in sub-Sahara Africa, "cadet" could also mean "child soldier". The Canadian General who ran the UN Rwanda mission wrote a very disturbing book about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/They_Fight_Like_Soldiers,_They_Die_Like_Children

And that you took the time to DRAW her eyes, that are just almost covered by the shades...
These are the things I love most about reading comics.
Thank you.
it's tough for a character who's eyes are hidden behind shades to fully express their emotion
