Many supporters of Harry, I think, were incarcarated by Cristos.
I agree, but not by specific design; I think that the people who were likely to have supported Harry would have also been adversarial to Cristos's agenda, and were taken out of play, like Carlos and Listens-to-Wind.
Harry hasn't had much opportunity to hang with his peeps on the WC and get the skinny on recent events.
Yeah, it's a little strange to me that Harry apparently hasn't spoken to Ebenezer, considering their post-revelation relationship upgrade to actual family. Harry's always been a bit zealous about having family in the first place (understandably, of course, considering his history), so I found it odd that he didn't have Murphy or Thomas reach out to Ebenezer and have him visit Demonreach over the last year. At least, none that was mentioned. On a meta level, it makes perfect sense, because there wasn't time for it in Cold Days, and Skin Game was already stuffed to the gills with fanservice about Michael and Butters, and Eb had already taken a prominent enough role in Turn Coat and Changes. I also further presume that Jim wanted to show their first post-assassination meeting rather than have it happen off-page, so I get it, but it seems out of place in the context of the story, what with a year passing since his death was officially undone by Rashid.
But he
did have a new staff, and Eb promised to give him a new "blank," so maybe it just wasn't mentioned? I don't know.
Anyway, Peace Talks is going to have a lot more Council stuff, which I'm happy about.
