As Alex puts it to Max Lord, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. How long will this apparent friendship last for, though? With Astra, Non and their followers on a mission to destroy humanity, the DEO have no choice but to approach Lord for help. And in turn, given that the future of the planet hangs in the balance, Max doesnt really have much choice but to work alongside those who hed tried to take down. This seems like merely a temporary working relationship, but could we see more from Max Lord helping out the DEO with similar upcoming threats?
