Return to the Field

Return to the Field is the one hundred forty-third issue of the series.

Plot
The Writer takes himself and Oveur to issue 34, where they look for the second key. Meanwhile, the Future Writer finds the Nega Writer laying crippled at the bottom of the cliff. The Nega Writer manages to say that the heroes went to issue "thirty-" before dying, but can't finish the sentence. The Future Writer decides to search every issue that starts with "thirty." The Writer and Oveur see past versions of themselves and Samus being attacked by Pickett and the Dragon Minions, and the Writer remembers he hid the key after Samus and Oveur were kidnapped, and they'll just wait until the past version hides the key so they can find it. However, the Dragon Minions attack and capture the current Writer and Oveur instead.

Trivia

 * Samus only appears in this issue as a past version of herself.
