So is part 8 all of Cleaning House? I wasn’t sure it almost seemed like we were gonna get more about what was going on with the symbiotic relationship and the backstory, so I thought I’d ask. :) great story btw!

Yes, Part 8 was the ending of that one. There is a broader backstory, but I don’t actually know what it is precisely. Basically, Joe was some superhero of some variety, corrupted in the course of a mission by some demonic slob thing which is slowly trying to corrupt him and wrestle back control over the world through the hero.

There may be more to the story at some point! Not really sure.
