Added DiffLines:

* TheBusCameBack: OMAC turns back into Buddy in the last issue, but Buddy spends most of that time terribly confused about what's going on, and it's certainly implied he would have gotten re-transformed if the comic hadn't been cut off.


Added DiffLines:

* TheWoobie: Poor Buddy's life absolutely sucked before his transformation, and although that transformation lets him fight back against his persecutors, it was involuntary and essentially destroyed his identity.
