Viper "Commander": Status update!
Viper [soldier]: Sir, it took some effort but we've managed to integrate Archimedes into our system. We're calibrating as we speak.
Give us a couple more hours and we should have everything squared away and ready for the next phse of the project.
It's been a challenge, what with Archimedes putting up a fight, but it seems like it gave up a littl ewhile ago and the process has gone more smoothly since then.
Viper "Commander": Good work. Keep me in the loop and let me know the instant everything is inplace. We can't afford to get behind schedule.
Viper [soldier]: Sir, we've got a problem.
There's something new in the system. We've been hacked and infiltrated - and whatever it is has some ultra-powerful keys. We're locked out of the system. Sir, we're vulnerable!
Viper "Commander": Ok, yank Archimedes, and pull up stakes. We're moving to the backup facility.

Hmm…could this “something” be Eternal Refuge?
I’m thinking that whatever hacked the system in last week’s issue is also hacking Viper’s system.
Looking at panels one and three, it seems that Archimedes’s skull looks a little lonely on the floor. Would it be possible to set it in a covenant gun holder thingy, so it would float up in the air? I swear to you it would look a lot less out of place.
I have no idea where you got the map, but that really adds a lot!
re: mendicantbias00 – Hmm, it could be, but it might be something completely different, too.
re: Rosco-128 – It’s a good guess.
re: John Kenyon – It would, if the skull still served a purpose. It’s meant to look like castoff now. Viper has what they wanted from the skull, so as far as they’re concerned, the skull is just a footnote in their plans now.
re: Bearded Phantom – That image comes from the screen in the switch room of Red Base. Throw the switch, and that’s what shows up on the monitor.
