Note the cover of the new page is "Scion's aid", but the line break we used to get there suggests "Scion said".

This latest cover doesn't have a barcode...  Is this the last step?

Have we reached the end? Or is there another clue hidden in this cover to push us further past Cover #9?

Are we sure there is a next clue? I mean, this is part 9, and has no barcode.

This could be the end.

Interesting thought - there is no bar code on this comic cover. I have a feeling we've hit the end of the line.

In addition, the color scheme on that Scion looks (to me) a lot like the color scheme on Guise/Wager Master.

Also - is it just me, or have we seen every hero except Guise throughout this series of puzzles?

Well if there are nine total covers, then put together, each may be part of one final link.  I wouldn't be surprised.

Also, I like to think that the Cosmic Concurrence "Back By Popular Demand" Is a reference to a lot of us wanting the Cosmic Contest graphic novel they Kickstarted. Possibly not, but it's fun to imagine =]

Using the page numbers, I counted in that number of letters based on their names..

S = Paul Parsons (white,8)

C = Tyler Vance (green,9)

I = Maia Mongomery (pink,3)

O = Ryan Frost (grey,7)

N = Helena (red,5)

S = Vanessa Long (brown,6)

A = Aata Wakarewarewa (orange,4)

I = Dr. Meredith Stinson (white,8)

D = Dr. Blake Washington (yellow,1)

i don't think they mean the sidekick app. I think they mean sentinels of the multiverse the videogame

 I'm referring to when they got the atomic numbers from notes for sst, termi bunker, etc. 

 

figured it out finally

technically he was in the "Intervene" clue, as his Retcon card, but he has not been referenced in the comic covers yet, I don't think.

Biggest clue to me is "The End of the Beginning". We could go to /beginning and start all over again. I've tried the last word of the first sentence, first line, and first paragraph and no dice. Other ideas?

The glowing being is Tim. We found Tim Cosing! =] His signs pointed us here! Him telling us to find him was the beginning.

In Greazer's deck some Cosmic Concurrance issue numbers are in the flavor text, earlier comic numbers though. So maybe they brought the comic series back.

I figured it out. "The End of the Beginning" is telling us that this is the end of the first step of the overarching puzzle. Probably 9 steps total, given our experience. We're 1/9th done. Go us!!!

Cosmic Concurrence was supposed to come out with the failed Sentinels Story Wars Kickstarter

edit: I'm off on the title it was "Cosmic Contest" in that Kickstarter.

Nice job again, everyone.

 

I assume "back by popular demand" meant that a series which had ended was being restarted---and I choose to believe that "Cosmic Concurrence" is the title of a Captain Cosmic Team-Up book.  Though, does it look like the list of issues on this page is wrong---it's a duplicate of the list from both End of Days and Be The Gate, but unlike those two, the list doesn't include the actual issue we're looking at, which is weird.

hero names have been in bold on all the comic covers.   Similar occurs in the rule books when giving bios when a hero or another villain is referenced.

That's what I meant. We, the populus, demanded it, so they brought back all of this story fun. It was too bad about that KS, though.

Thanks to those who had the time and knowledge to figure out these puzzles.  I appreciate finding out more lore and hopefully the bigger item in store from this.

The silhouette inside the ball on the cover does look like a Voss on one knee. That plus the "little heroes of Earth" quip screams Voss to me.

 

It's like Thanos coming to Earth and saying "Galactus made me his herald, but if you beat him up, I'll help you defeat him and take his power."

 

So much fun.
