Playing Jacks, Page 19

Hero is a Strong Word

While Guardian has spoken in the past, this is the first time she really weighs in on what’s going on. When challenged she falls back on her grandfather’s legacy, and that’s something I hope we get to explore the idea of living in the shadow of someone else, and what it means to try and honor their name, while calling on it for support, and trying to become your own person. Also, thank you Jake for the epic side-eye.
