Story[]
Assault on the Onyx Pyramid, part 2 of 2:[]
Written by James Hill
Art by Martin Griffiths, Dave Hine, Blib & Stuart Place
Thanks to Snarf, Lion-O is able to use the Sword of Omens and realises he fighting an illusion of the evil Mumm-Ra. However, there's the issue of the others and it is the Eye of Thundera shining the light of truth that reveals the true dangers behind the other illusions - illusions designed to take advantage of each 'Cats weakness (Cheetara - confined spaces, Panthro - pride, Tygra - vanity). Though they all overcome their struggles and escape just in time, their assault on the Pyramid was a failed one.
