Subject: [BGC] "BG Cross" fanfic Update

For those following the story...

Normally I'd have posted part 16 a few weeks ago, but studying has gobbled
up most of my free time these past couple of months. Things are going to
ease up as we get a week long break starting this Friday, so I hope to
finish off part 16 then, but something's come up...

A friend of mine (now my new VERY BEST friend (Thanks Shawn!!!<g>)) sent me
a copy of the AD Police Viz Graphic Novel. For those who haven't heard of
it, it follows the actions of the AD Police in and around the year 2027. I
was first made aware of the AD Police Graphic Novel when an alt.fan.bgcrisis
regular named Innpchan posted his theory on why Sylia said what she said at
the end of BGC# 6. In his essay he very convincingly tied in events from the
AD Police Graphic novel with events that occur in BubbleGum Crisis to
explain some of the question marks in BGCrisis (if you'd like to read
Innpchan's theory--and get an inside scoop on what's going on in BG Cross--
point your web browser to:

It was this essay (and something else) that inspired me to start writing BG
Cross as it is unfolding now (the original plotline was based on a "return
of Largo" idea but that got nixed after folks in the know sent me emails
with repulsed reactions<g>).

Since reading Innpchan's theory, I have tried in vain to find a copy of the
ADP Graphic Novel so that I could learn more about what exactly occured
during the time period before the KS were formed in order to make the future
events of BG Cross as respectful to the ADP/BGCrisis timeline as possible.
Now that my new very best friend has ended my quest, it looks like BG Cross
will be held up for a short time while I do some research, and hopefully
find out that what I've written so far isn't *too* far off ;)

Anywho, that's the update. If you've read this far, then I would like to
sincerely thank you for your interest in my little fanfic. I'd love to hear
from anyone who has any theories or suggestions on what the ADP Graphic
Novel proposes, and if anyone would like to know how to order it, I can find
out for you if you send me an email.

Thanks again for your time and patience :)

Something to ponder in the meantime: Who is V7-28?
