First things first: I'm organizing a crossover project which will begin (at the earliest) in January of next year.  Not only is it something that will try and be a huge crossover with many different comics, but any sales of print versions of the crossover would go to the Hero Initiative, a charity to help comic creators in need.  If you want to be involved, PQ me or e-mail me at karamesser@hotmail.com.
 
Top page: I actually really like panel 3 here.  It should be noted that I know the perspective looks wonky, but there's a reason: when Sparkle's mass increases, it doesn't increase all at the same time.  Different parts get bigger at different times, and this can actually be a detriment to her mobility.  But it can still be very intimidating.  Also, I like the fade in panel 1, which is something I didn't know how to do back in issue 2, which would have been a good effect to know.
 
Bottom page: I wanted three challenges here, with Tempore actually losing one.  But the only thing I could think of was arm wrestling, which wouldn't be able to happen, considering what happens when Tempore touches another order guardian.  Even though the Queue have different rules governing their behavior (since it's up to KAM what rules they need to abide by), introducing a concept and then seemingly ignoring it in the same issue is never good.
 
Tomorrow: What happened to Astral?  And Tempore takes on his last challenge
