COUNTDOWN TO OBLIVION
Chronon, the Evil Time Overlord, is meddling with the past. Having kidnapped Professor Casper Clockwise, scientific adviser to N.A.T.O., Chronon has stolen his plans for a time-travelling vessel.
The E.T.T.A.S. machine (Exploration Through Time And Space) will give Chronon powers that will set him up among the Gods. However, the Professor's teenage son, better known as Rascal, has other ideas.
He's had his hi-NRG, Isotonic Nutri-Vibe drink, so he's fired up to take on Chronon's henchmen, pistol-packing gun-slingers, cut-throat pirates, ferocious guard-dogs and fire breathing metal dragons to rescue his father and his planet and get his homework in on time!!!
Armed only with the Professor's latest invention, the Bubble Gun, Rascal time travels through adventure after adventure including the Wild West, the land of the Aztecs and the Corridors of Time. But Chronon wants rid of his arch-enemy, and be it in the past, present or future, well... time is ticking for Rascal...
DODGY CITY
SHERIFF VIRGIL CLANCY
Sheriff Virgil Clancy was a fair lawman. Hard but fair, he ran Dodgy City with a rod of steel and was reputed throughout the state as having the highest cowboy clean-up rate around. Few cattle-rustlers or gun slinging outlaws stayed around long enough in Dodgy City to alter those statistics.
But visitors from out of town (from out of this world to be precise), were to turn Dodgy City into a den of crime. And before Sheriff Clancy could go for his Colt 45, the Evil Time Overlord, known only as Chronon, had added him to his motley crew of possessed henchmen...
DEPUTY WARREN NASH
When Deputy Nash reported for work, the Sheriff's offices were in chaos. The cells were unlocked and the doors were open and all the criminals that had been there the night before were gone. All had gone but one a kooky kind of stranger, with a sinister glint in his eye and a sly, thin smile.
The stranger looked deep into his eyes and he knew. As a deputy, he would always follow orders....
WILD NED MEREDITH
The "Wanted" sign welcomed wild Ned Meredith into Dodgy City that morning. Fed up with seeing his picture all over the state, he ripped the poster down - it wasn't a very good likeness of him anyhow, and the puny reward insulted his reputation as an outlaw!
Tying his horse up at the saloon doors, he strode down the dirt track into the town center. But where was everyone? He'd not heard of any gold rush in that area, but the place was like a ghost town.
At last, a local appeared, walking towards him, slowly but surely. "Howdy partner" called Ned, right hand poised above his holster. "I am nobody's partner," growled the local, "I am Chronon, Lord of Time. Bow down before me..."
