Hail!
It's typical Johnson luck isn't it? He ends up telling his life story to an alien who ends up being a member of a species who descended from the dinosaurs on Earth. That's pretty wild and an altogether not unheard of concept in science fiction. We have the Voth in "Star Trek: Voyager" and we have The Silurians in "Doctor Who". There was even a cartoon about sentient dinosaurs in space called "Dinosaucers" in the 1980s! It was only a matter of time before I tossed my hat into the ring when it came to alien dinosaurs. The concept is just too much fun to think about. Now, we only met one member of the race and his name is Trakken. We can only hope other members of his species are just as amiable. Trakken seems like a good dino. We may see him again once things are calm. Hey, we may even see him at Crystal and Marcus's wedding munching on the salad bar. You never know. Chalk him up to another amazing first contact in Starbolts history.
Speaking of Starbolts history, this week we briefly went over Marcus and Crystal's history. Well, more Marcus than anything else. We learn a bit more about his relationship with his parents. They talked before he went with the others to Aquarius back in Starbolts #277 and the rest as they say is history.
I admit there was a lot to go over. It's probably best that he just skipped the nitty gritty stuff like being possessed by Demonstorm and a few others odds and ends. The dino heard the gist of it and I think that's all he needed to know. Now Carter has to explain her view on things before they can get the gem. I'm sure Marcus proved himself and now Carter is on the spot. This should be fun because we all know how much Carter *LOVES* to be the center of attention.
See ya next time!
