Sisterhood of Steel #6 (the plot picks up speed)

Picking up where we left off before the holiday, with Sisterhood of Steel #6.

The narrative style of the series so far had been to have around 2 or 3 subplots per issue. With issue 6, that changes as Marx realized she wasn't going to have very many more issues and set out to wrap things up before cancellation. So trimming pages from this issue was really, really hard, and there's a lot of plot to summarize. ( so let's get to it, shall we? )
Suggested tags are: title: Sisterhood of Steel, creator: Christy Marx, publisher: Epic.

Christy Marx has a website page devoted to Sisterhood of Steel; she has (I assume signed) copies of all issues available for sale, as well as posters and prints.

I'll also ask if somebody can direct me to the newspaper Sherlock Holmes comic strips? The ones that had Holmes out to catch a villain who preyed on filthy, penniless rent boys ("So, you know Holmes, try to wear some nicer clothes than you usually do"). It ended with him knocking over a bowl of oranges. Ring any bells?

Gotham City Sirens 7 - 'absent friends'

I have a question about this image from Gotham City Sirens #7, and it's probably due to my inability to keep continuity straight in my head amongst the umpty-gazillion Batbooks going on right now. Help me out gang?
( should auld acquaintance be forgot )
One panel from Gotham City Sirens #7 under the cut, not my scan, we've had 3.5 pages so far which brings us to just over 4 pages don't make me add fractions!.
