Sup homefries! Today’s comic makes a lot of references to recent stories – so, I thought I’d make a lil’ timeline to help you get back up to speed on bits you may have missed or forgotten.
- In Ghastly Murder Tales, the seemingly supernatural Puck revealed that he gained his powers from a mysterious red star.
- The Badnix decided to keep that star in their ship’s hold for safekeeping – where it was spotted by an unidentified spy (now known to have been Turner Page, AKA That Book With a Face).
- Charlotte Nidd, Arika’s sneaky/sinister mother, reported this to the equally sneaky/sinister Power Council. Sneaky/sinister plans are presumed to have been hatched.
- Under orders from another member of the Council, Turner headed up a plan to steal the star back from the Badnix, leading to some sci-fi type events in Revenge of the Space Menace.
- Turner was found out & captured – leading to the events at hand!
Where do these strange new glittering MacGuffins come from? What exactly are they capable of? We will probably be learning the answer to those questions soon!
(P.S. – a Chaos Star actually showed up one other time, in the possession of a character not mentioned above – if you can track down who it was, you might find a big clue to future events!)
I hope Doctor Mittins is more trustworthy. After all, s/he knows the true meaning of friendship!
