But now the planet is caught in the middle of a war with the invading forces of Robotica! Aided only by fellow former Legionnaire XS and the Amazers, Star Boy and Dreamer, they find themselves outnumbered, outgunned and unable to get help from any other world, In the backup feature (illustrated by Rick Leonardi and Al Williamson), take a closeup look at Star Boy and Dreamer's past...and future(?) together.
