As Jeff (Joel McHale) struggles to fit into his new role as a teacher at Greendale Community College, which isn’t helped when the college’s low bar of teaching is put in jeopardy after Annie (Alison Brie) decides to join the class and demand more of him, Abed (Danny Pudi) convinces the rest of the Study Group to enroll in a new blow-off class, Nicolas Cage – Good or Bad?, which consists entirely of watching Cage movies and pondering what the teacher (Kevin Corrigan) explains is an unanswerable question (but one which Abed is determined to find an answer to).

Tom Strong and the Planet of Peril #6
- Title: Tom Strong and the Planet of Peril #6 (of 6)
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Peter Hogan
- Artist: Chris Sprouse
Tom Strong and the Planet of Peril comes to a close with a perfunctory final issue where the various issues raised over the course of the mini-series (the fate of Tom Strong‘s daughter in childbirth, the disease ravaging the alternate Earth known as Terra Obscura, and Val Var Gram contracting the disease) are all wrapped-up without much fuss.
Because so much is covered (much off-panel) in the final issue Tom Strong and the Planet of Peril #6 feels more like an epilogue to Tom and Val’s adventure together than an actual final issue to the series. Several of the characters the pair met get cameos here, and there is some fun to be had, but those expecting a big payoff are likely to be disappointed as the various problems of Tom, Val, and Terra Osbscura have all fought dovetail so neatly they pretty much solve themselves.
Even if this is the weakest issue of the mini-series it still has some fun moments, strong (pun intended) character interactions, and the kind of off-beat humor you would expect. For fans.

“The woman is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma I’ve had sex with. I would be
lying if I said I was the strongest assessor of her motives at this point.”
