Taryn: So, ummm... what's the deal with these monsters?
Panel 2
Questar: Many fookrons ago, the monsters were the dominant species of Zentor. The humanoid populace was little more than their space-brunch. But in recent fookrons, some sort of monster-killing cataclysm befell them, and nowadays only a relative few are left. Fortunately, they're very set in their ways and as long as the populace keeps their schedules straight, there's very little death when they attack. Gee! You sure are pretty!
Panel 3
Taryn: Oh.... thanks.
Taryn thought caption: What a dork!
Panel 4
*Questar has teleported them all*
Questar: Here we are at the hotel! Now, be advised, this is in the territory of the Every 2 Days Monster, but it isnt due until tomorrow, so don't worry!

Panel 1
caption: Soon...
Questar: Okay, so we'll await the Every 6 Hours Monster here! We'll have to defeat him quickly, as the Every 93 Days Monster is scheduled to appear in an hour. Fortunately, that'll give us a brief respite before the Every 6 Hours Monster emerges again!
Panel 2
Questar: Fortunately, he's not nearly as nasty as the Every 10 Years Monster, or the Every Month Monster, who'll be making an appearance tomorrow. I defeated him in about 20 minutes this morning.
Panel 2
Tenzil: Couldn't you find a way to stop the monsters from attacking at all? Like maybe seal up their caves or something?
Questar: We've tried! That only slows them down! And if we start getting them off-schedule, then who knows what chaos will ensue!
Panel 3
Tenzil: Okay. Say, what's up with all these cameras following us around?
Questar: Oh, well, when I first came to this planet a fookron ago to help them with their monster crisis, it of course was a big deal on the Planetary News. So that started filming my battles with the monsters. Recently, we've expanded to an entire holo-network devoted to my exploits, and broadcast on three planets!
Panel 4
Noyd: So are you saying that basically you've devoted yourself to protecting the planet from these monsters? Don't the Zentorians help you?
Panel 5
Questar: No. But what could they do? After all, they are small and frail, and not heroic like I am!
Taryn thoughts: Yeah... definitely a dork!

Panel 1
*Shot of the gang waiting by the unconcious monster*
Panel 2
*Another shot of the gang waiting, beginning to grow noticebly impatient*
Panel 3
*Another shot of the gang waiting, very impatient*
Panel 4
*Questar returns*
Questar: Good job, team! Now I'll teleport him back to his underground cavern, from whence he won't emerge for another five hours, 30 minutes, and 4 seconds!
Panel 5
*Questar teleports the monster away*
Tenzil: Say, you saw that small figure in the shadows when the monster emerged, didn't you?
Questar: Yes! It was curious! Very curious indeed! Oh well, we best go rest up for the next appearance by the monster!
Panel 6
Taryn: But shouldn't we maybe investigate further? I'm curious about what that was in the shadows as well.
Questar: Investigate? Well, pretty girl, if you think that's a good idea...

Panel 1
Questar: What are you doing here, good citizen! Don't you know this is the territory of the Every 6 Hours Monster! It's very dangerous!
Glad Hander: Oh! I not know that! Well very, running I'll be along!
Panel 2
Taryn: Wait a sec... what's that sticking out of his pouch there?
Panel 3
*Tenzil opens the pouch and pulls out a syringe like the one they found before*
Tenzil: Hmm... how do you explain this?
Glad Hander: Over game is, guess I! Newest batch of monster stimulant not working anyway. Spell end of big holo-show if no monster!
Panel 4
Tenzil: Huh?
Taryn: Are you saying that you've been artifically stimulating the monster so that it comes out to attack every six hours?
Panel 5
Glad Hander: Bring great hero to Zentor to fight monster! Make holo-show big!
Tenzil: 'Star, did you know anything about this?
Questar (perplexed): I don't understand. I've been helping these people. I'm their hero. They've been very grateful.
Panel 6
Noyd: Grateful for the profits you've been raking in, man! To them you're just a money-making tool!

Panel 1
caption: The next day...
*Tenz is at the reception desk at the doctor's office*
Tenz: We're here to see Dr. Yeilek. My friend Lester Spiffany here should have an appointment!
Recptionist: Yes, go on in.
Panel 2
*Depicts Loge Yeilek examining Lester, Loge is a little dude, ala Glad Hander*
Loge: Yes, yes. Very fat indeed!
Panel 3
Tenz: Can you do anything for him, doc?
Loge: Maybe. Super-charged Kryptonian fattening is difficult business. The radiations of Zentor's orange sun affect it in unpredictable ways!
Panel 4
*Loge continues examination, while Tenz and Taryn chat*
Tenz: Strange. He doesn't talk nearly as funny as that Glad Hander fellow does.
Taryn: All I know, is that the sooner we get off this crazy planet, the happier I'm going to be.
Panel 5
Tenz: Oh? But you've picked up your own little admirer!
Taryn: Please do NOT mention him. This is the first hour I've had away from that dork since he discovered the truth about the monsters. If I hadn't convinced him that he better keep a look out in case the Every Month Monster shows up, he'd be here salivating over me now.
Panel 6
*Loge walks over to Tenzil and Taryn, Tiffany is listening in the background*
Loge: Nope. Nothing I can do for him.
Panel 7
*Tiffany leans into the doctor, her breasts down near his face*
Tiffany (sobbing): But, doctor! You simply MUST be able to help him! He's my darling brother! But... look at him!

Tiffany: I mean... being this size certainly can't be good for his health, can it?
Dr. Loge: Certainly not. Very bad for his overall health. Heart straining, lungs straining, bowels straining.
Panel 2
Tenzil: Eeeeew!
Tiffany: OH! My poor brother!
Panel 3
Dr. Loge: Chin up, off-worlders! Big hope for cure lies in alternative medicine practice of my colleague on Hippie Planet!
Tenzil: "Hippie Planet"? Sounds groovy.
Panel 4
Dr. Loge: Will set you up an appointment. Some not believe in helpfulness of mist-huffing, but Avatandan Doctor has helped many.
Panel 5
Tenzil: Well, we certainly appreciate the referral... but our ship was destroyed by the Every 10 Years Monster and I'm afraid Lester is going to have trouble fitting through a Threshold.
