You may recall that Jack infiltrated the Cormorant in “The Case of the Unwelcome Visitor”, to investigate the Night Hero and moon around after Erin Winters. That was two summers ago.
Speaking of Erin, and Mad Terry…
There was a weird little story called “End of the Road” that originally ran a couple months after this strip, but chronologically has to have come before “The Big Hiatus”, and probably before “Space is the Place”.
At the end of the Bobbins story “Into the Woods”, Erin traded her soul to save the life of her love interest, The Boy, and was forced to resume her Mordawwa form and return to Hell. It didn’t help; The Boy managed to get himself killed again a couple months later in an effort to Skype Erin with an eldritch computer, and joined her in the Underworld more directly, having become her noble steed, the hell-horse Scientist.
At some point later, Mordawwa and Scientist, by mechanisms unexplained, escaped Hell and returned to Earth as their mortal selves. After being saved from wendigos by Goblin Santa Claus, they ended up back in Tackleford… kind of.
They reappeared in a weird forgotten space where Mrs Terry was collecting all the forgotten characters, like Hugo and Fallon (even though we’ve seen Fallon recently), Rachel and Tessa (who were briefly the main characters of SGR, until they got thrown under a bus and the old Bobbins cast took back over), Ryan’s late girlfriend Natalie Durand (who last we’d seen her had gotten a post-life job as a Grim Reaper), and so on.
With Mad Terry’s assistance, Erin and The Boy engineered an escape, but Mad Terry was grievously injured in the process. So it’s good to see him here looking unscathed.

Important tip. Being able to recognize poor journalism does not make one a journalist.

Mad Terry’s back! And looking dapper. Look at those points on his pocket square!
