Stories, Art and Painted Cover by Mark Crilley. Under Gax's direction, the robots of the soon-to-be-destroyed space station, Fognon-6, hastily set about building a spaceship for their escape. Though none of them were designed for such work, they manage to build something "spaceworthy" just in time. Boarding the makeshift craft, they shoot out of the space station just as it caves in on itself. Gax convinces them that their best hope of survival is to sell themselves at the intergalactic robot market on the nearby planet Buspettin. It is there that Gax is purchased by a familiar-looking fellow (that some die-hard AKIKO fans might recognize) in Part 2 of this tale! Plus: Akiko tells fun facts about Japan in "East Meets West"! And: An Akiko paper doll with three costumes on the back cover! 24 pages, B&W. Cover price $2.50.
