I’ve always hated the disconnect between the ending of AE (“but we knew there had to be more of us out there … and we were gonna find ‘em”) and the events of MO (schlepping around in nameless industrial microbusinesses to get a can of tuna).
Despite its fairly minimal addition to the story, AE established this sense that Abe and co. were getting organized and preparing to fully take on the industrialists, with Abe assuming the role of their guide. But that never came through into the story of MO, and that’s just another strike against MO.
