Summary
TV 21 "look[s] back through the files of time" to 13 February 2065. On that day, news comes in to Space City that Steve Zodiac has surrendered Fireball XL5 to the Batmen while TV 21's special correspondent for Marineville reports that tension is mounting as Commander Shore and his men await an attack they feel sure is coming following Stingray's encounter with some Titan Terror Fish.
