Worldbuilding[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Rumours sweep through Unity City that Blue is scheduled to go before a Spectrum firing squad, with the crime of which he is accused and whether a trial has taken place both unknowns.
- A Spectrum helicopter can get from Cloudbase to Professor Vian's island in the South Pacific within an hour whereas an Angel aircraft can arrive there in forty-nine minutes.
- Black threatens Fawn with mysteronisation multiple times.
- Vian makes use of an automatic missile screen and a force-field, which does not extend below water level, to shield his island from the Angels' fire.
- Scarlet and several other Spectrum agents use laser cutters to break into Vian's laboratory from an underground cave.
Story notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Like most of TV Century 21's comic stories from the same period, this comic serial was not given a title in the pages of TV Century 21 during its original printing; the title instead comes from later reference sources.
Continuity[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The force-field belt is effective against even electrode weapons. (COMIC: Martian Menace, Traitor Black Gives In!)
