The survivors of season 8 discover a portal to the Mirror Universe, and meet their evil-ler counterparts.

... Courtesy of my not-quite-sleeping brain this morning.  Which actually thought it was only season 3, but who's counting?

Iron Argon

The other day, I ran across a lyric phrase that struck me as being infelicitous. I decided to look it up on line, and stumbled across a published work that I think gives the celebrated "Eye of Argon" a run for its money. Possibly leaving it in the dust (by which I mean the dust which racks the climes of the baren land which dominates large portions of the Norgolian empire, of course). The author of "Eye of Argon", Jim Theiss, had to look things up in a paper thesaurus and heck-and-punt on a manual typewriter. Dennis M. Barrer Jr., author of Templars and Pagans, had modern text-editing software, and could copy-and-haste from electronic reference sources.  Which presumably helped him to output some hundreds of pages, as compared to Theiss's mere 22-ish pages.  It's a remarkable piece of work, available for sale on Amazon and elsewhere.  Not to be missed by fans of the original EoA.
