Notes

  • "All the Pretty Ponies" story shows some dialogues with Brazilian bad words: "Puta" (bitch), "Caralho" (prick) and "Merda" (shit).
  • It is unclear if "The Life and Death of Ace Arn" is meant to be canon for the New Earth continuity, or if it is just a story. For simplicity's sake, we have indexed it as happening on New Earth.
  • "A 'True Story' from Saucer Country" is a story about George Adamski, a Polish American author who became widely known in ufology circles during 20th Century.
    • Although the story only states the year, the meeting with Orthon allegedly took place on 20 November 1952.
    • The story infers that Adamski met his dead wife, Mary Shimbersky, being alive in Venus. She died in 1954. In his 1955 book Inside the Space Ships, Adamski claimed that Orthon arranged for him to be taken on a trip to see the Solar System, including the planet Venus, the location where Orthon said the late Mrs. Adamski had been reincarnated.
  • All stories in this issue are reprinted in Strange Adventures.

Trivia

  • "All the Pretty Ponies" story: the stret boy wears a CBF t-shirt; The principle behind the MindRide is very similar to a plot on Bit Degeneration, a series featured in Heavy Metal Magazine.
