PANEL 1: LOCATION: Tierra DESCRIPTION: Earth form space, we see Spain, Italy, and Northern Africa. The MACHITO and Tres Primos’ Ship approach Earth. NARRATION: When a Grand Council is called, it’s a huge affair for Madrid. AND a logistical nightmare. PANEL 2: The two ships from the side enter the atmosphere. NARRATION: Every member of La Familia was raised thinking they were a special little snowflake. And when they’re interacting with the wider world — THEY ARE. PANEL 3: From below, the two ships continue through the atmosphere, air streaking around them. NARRATION: But when you bring them all together, in one place, it’s a NIGHTMARE CLASH OF EGOS AND ACCOMMODATIONS. PANEL 4: NOSh holds a transparent glass tablet, making a “deet deet!” sound, NARRATION: Each family member demands the finest in luxury housing. And one city can only do so much. Entire wings on Imperial logistics swing into action to quickly assign spots. PANEL 5: NOSH motions as he talks to NANDO. NARRATION: And sometimes, those assignments can be telling… NOSH: Hey ‘Nando! Remember how Machito was assigned to park OUTSIDE MADRID, last times? PANEL 6: NOSH looks at his tablet while two of the TRES PRIMOS (SQUAT and THIN) talk to them via hologram. SKITTER sits in his chair, looking concerned. NOSH: This time we got EL ESCORIAL PALACE. SQUAT PRIMO: YOWZA! That’s considerably better than us. THIN PRIMO: We were told to park “on the cold side of hell.” —— Want to read the full story?
