Synopsis

After Eddie Robert’s funeral Warlock returns to his cocoon. He awakes
after two geologists warn him about a bomb test. Meanwhile Von Doom
tries to stop the test because it would have a disastrous effect on the
San Andreas fault. Rex Carpenter, who has become President in the
meantime, refuses to cancel the test. Just as Von Doom feared, the
Deathbirds are activated by the ensuing earthquake and he calls
President Carpenter again to get the Air Force moving. Again Carpenter
turns Von Doom down and tells him that he will handle the Air-Force
problem personally. Von Doom has a deactivator for the Deathbirds and
uses it as he sees the aircraft following Warlock to the desert. Using
the deactivator Von Doom detonates the Deathbirds
In a television speech Rex Carpenter proclaims that Adam Warlock is a
danger and that they all must stop at nothing to get rid of the danger.

Notes

• Jerry and Ray are geologists who find Warlock’s cocoon.
• Deathbirds are outlawed machines of destruction, they are unmanned aircrafts, that were deemed too vicious for civilized warfare
  and thus banned.
• With the exception of Jerry and Ray all characters listed
  under “other characters” appear in a flashback at Eddie Roberts’ funeral
  only.

Pencilers Don Heck Inkers Don Heck

Featured Characters:

• Colonel John Rogers
• telepathic plant

Locations:

• Nyanthos
• Earth

Vehicles:

• John Rogers’ spaceship

Synopsis

Sometime in the future, a planet is surrounded by a strange mist that
warns travelers of a quarantine. In the year 2006, Colonel John Rogers
arrives back on Earth to an adoring crowd, carrying a sample of
vegetation from Nythanos. The plant telepathically tells the crown that
it is really Colonel Rogers, and the plant’s life-essence has taken
possession of his body. He now has the plant’s powers, but they only
work in Nythanos’ atmosphere. To test the claim, the atmosphere of
Nythanos is duplicated, and John Rogers is able to retake control of his
body. The plant explains that it had John Rogers’ memories, and didn’t
realize it wasn’t really him. It warns that there are many other plants
on Nythanos who will use such an ability instinctively. The planet is
quarantined, and the plant returned home.
