Summery Introduction of Travis Morgan into Skartaris is recapped. Tara, the first female lead, and Diemos are re-introduced. Re-capping what transpired in 1st Issue Special #8 (November 1975), the story found Tara training Travis Morgan in the ways of combat as they journeyed to her land, Shamballah. They were soon captured by slave raiders, until Morgan freed Tara and urged her to flee. Because of his defiance, Morgan was sentenced to a slow and painful death, although he would survive and be reunited with Tara before long.
