When Last We Left Oceanographer (and Dangard Ace's  Pilot), Ilongo Savage...

...he and fellow oceanographer Judith Johns had discovered an alien egg!
(And yes, Easter was yesterday, but this ain't a holiday treat!)








You'll see Dangard Ace  take on the Starchild  Next Monday...
...when the first thing you see will be this calamitous cover by Herb Trimpe and Al Milgrom!
The latest never-reprinted chapter in this story arc from Marvel's Shogun Warriors #9 (1979) is by usual stalwarts writer Doug Moench, penciler Herb Tripe, and guest inker Jack Abel!

Monday Mecha Madness SHOGUN WARRIORS "Cerberus and the Skyfall" Conclusion

...from that second job you recently took on!
Such is the case for Richard Carson, currently piloting Raydeen against a new mechanical menace, while Ilongo Savage has just been alerted to put Dangard Ace on standby against an, as of yet, unrevealed foe...
See what happens when you don't bring your giant robot with you, Ilongo?
And what of Genji?
What if she's needed to pilot Combatra?
The answers to these and other questions will be found right here...
Next Month!

Monday Mecha Madness SHOGUN WARRIORS "Downfall!" Conclusion

We Have Already Seen...

...the evil Maur-Kon has gained control of giant mecha Combatra V and is using it against the other Shogun Warriors!

Meanwhile, Combatra's unconscious pilot Genji is about to be sacrificed by Maur-Kon's assistant, Magar, to create a mystical creature that will help prove his superiority to his nominal boss...









Written by Doug Moench, penciled by Herb Trimpe, and inked by Mike Esposito, this never-reprinted story from Marvel's Shogun Warriors #6 (1979) concluded the series' first story arc.
So we're taking a break (but only until the New Year) from the Shoguns!
But there's much more Mecha Madness on Mondays!
After a pair of American robot tales for the remainder of November, December will be entirely-dedicated to a groundbreaking Japanese mecha...though not a giant one!
