Space Ghost #6

As Jace struggles with recent events, and the death caused by his hands, Space Ghost, Jan, and Blip continue to fight the good fight on their own as the comic introduces another classic Space Ghost villain in a single-issue story. Space Ghost #6 gives us Moltar whose backstory is beefed up making him a deranged scientist out for revenge and working with Robo Corp against those he blames for his disfigurement and the loss of his family. Oh, and he really doesn't like Space Ghost.

The early part of the comic has a montage feel with scenes of Space Ghost and Jan in action narrated by Jace struggling with taking a life and not knowing how to move forward. However, when Space Ghost and his sister are put in danger, Jace moves past his uncertainties and leaps to the rescue getting the comic back to the status quo without any further delay. Moltar is given far less comic time than Zorak, but that doesn't mean we won't see him again at some point. Next up for our reformed group of heroes: the Creature King.
