Issue Description

Kirby Hero introduces himself to Kevin Matchstick and Joe Phat by way of attacking the nest of harpies they were staking out.  Kevin and Joe join in, and the harpies are routed.  Kirby is another avatar, the Olympian.  Their slave turns out to be the seemingly-insane Wally Ut, who claims to be Kevin's second mage (replacing Mirth).  Kevin can't believe such a ridiculous figure could be his second mage.  Kevin, Kirby, and Joe, on the other hand, all get along really well, and Kirby temporarily joins the other two on their quest.  They drive off without Wally.  Meanwhile, the Pale Incanter sends his sons the Sprigginflints to find the heroes.

Volume Description

The Hero Defined is the second series in the planned Mage trilogy.  It comes after The Hero Discovered and before The Hero Denied.  It was published many years after the first series.  The third series has not yet been published, many years after the second series.  The second series had more of a mixed critical reception than the first series, but still had an enthusiastic following.
 
In it, Kevin Matchstick has become a more experienced and successful warrior, but to the detriment of his character.  He must find his second mage in order to learn how to move on to a better path--although he doesn't see it like that.
