We begin.

Star Sapphire flying through the roof of the new Sinister Citadel.

Where did we last year?

She followed Captain Comet down to Lemuria where Captain Comet helps the Adam.

Keep his wife, Jean Loring, his fiancee, Jean Loring in a comatose state for the good of everyone,

because her brains filled with crazy alien energy waves it

happens right sometimes you go to a living planet you piss it off it sends you back

anyway she arrives with this news we see the secret society funky flashman gorilla grod the wizard

the creeper who's still hanging out there they're're waiting for the info from Star-Safire.

You know, she breezes past all the stuff about, you know, the heroes and stuff.

The important part is Gene Loring and all that energy, alien energy she has in her mind.

That energy that's driven her mad.

A human catastrophe.

I've been called that, too, for totally different reasons.

I haven't destroyed any planets.

Funky wants to know what does that mean?

Well, Star Sapphire points out, obviously, they need to kidnap Gene Loring.

Funky jumps right on board, of course.
