X MARKS THE SPOT...FOR TROUBLE!

Ripley found a treasure map! The Roanoke scouts are eager to hunt down what they hope might be some kind of mystical hoard of gems and jewels, rad dinosaur bones, or maybe even more treasure maps (that you have to piece together to find an EVEN BIGGER prize, obviously)! What they end up finding is scattered pieces of an ancient Greek statue of a woman, who, when assembled, comes back to life as a vindictive ex-goddess!n. And she's looking to satisfy her hunger after thousands of years frozen in stone by draining any nearby magical resource...starting with the ‘Janes!

So much fun! We get an adventure involving a treasure map and a mysterious statue. I loved the callbacks to the Diane and Apollo storyline as well as the time Ripley was a god and created so many cats! Seriously, Marigold is the best kitty. I love picking up a Lumebrjanes volume for some strange fun involving a great group of friends.
