Panel 3
Now we see Ren Hauk an attractive but stern-looking woman, facing a brace of newsies.
Hauk: We will go to arbit and when all the facts are presented in their proper context, there is no doubt Mr. Ming will be fully exonerated.

Diana (thought): But it won't be directing operations at Jaxx Forge.
