Story[]
Year of the Cat, Part 4 of 4:[]
Written by Steve Alan
Art by Elwood P. Dowdes, Stephen Baskerville, Glop & Weasel
In the concluding part of the story, Cheetara and Slithe emerge from the geyser's waters as children. Lion-O however, remains old. Snarf, Panthro, and Tygra come upon the scene and wonder how to safely return the trio to their correct ages, thinking the cave and geyser options are too risky. Then, Jaga appears and tells Lion-O to use the sword, which fixes everything. Slithe, to pay them back for saving him, helps them safely mine the Thundrillium out of the Cave of Time with the Fistpounder. But there's no time to celebrate because...where are WilyKit and WilyKat?
Planetfall:[]
Written by Steve Alan
The story continues with the Berbils back at the controls of Vanguard of Ro-Bear. They conclude that it will never fly again and that it is rapidly flooding with seawater. Ro-Bear Bert ventures outside and beckons the others to join him on the beach of a small island. Lynx-O names the place Destiny Atoll. Despite their nervousness, the weary travellers make a fire and bed down for the night, leaving the job of searching for water, food, and other inhabitants until the morning. They are awoken by the huge figure of the Metokangmi. As the frightened Pumyra and Bengali prepare to defend their friends, the enormous creature picks some fruit and settles down by the fire. With peace descending again, the six figures eventually fall asleep. In the morning, the Thunderians and Berbils wake up to find their companion has left...
