    When We All Lived in the Forest last edited by gravenraven on 05/30/23 09:21PM View full history

But Buddy has a hard time fighting B'wana Beast, especially since he empathizes with him.  Unfortunately, the final battle here is a bit anti-climactic, and Morrison really stretches it with Animal Man's powers.
