1 CUT TO an ESTABLISHING-SHOT of a ravaged HOMEWORLD. Many, but not all, of the world spheres have been cracked open and harvested by the K'Lar. Their atmospheres are leaking out. Where the shells are cracked, the surrounding areas are corroding away. Cary--Micronauts #24 has a DPS map of Homeworld in it. Try to get a copy of this. If you can't, I'll fax you the pages. I have certain worlds in mind that I want destroyed, that will be pertinent in later arcs. It would be moot to tell you which ones, if you don't have a map!

The six K'LAR SHIPS are focused on one of the world spheres. Two are "puffing up" w/ their caustic blasts, while a third blasts away. The other three flank the attacking ships in defensive posture. Swarms of small space-squids jet about in reverse wedge formations like schools of predatory guppies.

2 CLOSE IN ON the living-ship that we've come to know and love. LONG-SHOT. It's puffing up, readying to blast a world sphere.

3 CUT TO the INT of the living-ship. Largest panel of page. We're back in the "nerve-center" of the ship where the "brain-bugs" hang out. The "brain-bugs" are in the mid-ground, but ACROYEAR and HUNTARR are in the foreground, prisoners of the living wall of the giant space-squid.

Both Acroyear and Huntarr are screaming in agony as the "brain-leaches" link the two Micronauts' minds with the "hive." A couple workers watch on, and a warrior is hanging close by. Huntarr looks like he's starting to loose cohesion, melting.

4 Bottom Right: Close in on Huntarr. Looking like a mass of melting wax, Huntarr is screaming in agony as the "brain-leach" burrows into his mind. Huntarr's polymorphic form is trying to "morph" the leach away from him, but can do nothing more than spasm.
