"The Wheel/Pumpkin Trouble"
Godwheel #2
February, 1995

Quote: "Look then...at the Godwheel! [...] Two suns rotate in the void of its core, and its perimeter reaches to half the width of a solar system! Uninhabitably hot at the center, uninhabitably cold at the rim...it holds in the livable zones that wrap around its two sides, enough different worlds and races to fill millions of planets!" - the Godyacht

Story

Regrouping aboard the Godyacht, Lukasz, Hardcase, Warstrike, Boneyard and the Freex (Pressure, Cayman, Flygirl and Féline) unite against Argus. His life essence waning, Argus sends his agents, Primevil, Lord Pumpkin and NecroMantra, to follow the ultras to the three Keys. The Freex defeat Primevil and take possession of the Windsword. Hardcase and Flygirl do not fare so well. Lord Pumpkin claims the Roc's Egg and possibly sends Flygirl to her death in the process, only to be executed later by Argus for "betrayal." Now the two sides scramble to gain the final key--the Crystal Crown--and with it power over the Crucble and godhood.
