Synopsis:
As Dr. Jimenez fills in the Femforce on the events
leading up to their being surrounded by Arachna and her
Amazons, Tara listens in. Having avoided capture, she
learns about Rita's sacrifice into the time transporter
and bravely enters the portal, anchoring herself to the
present with a rope. The next morning, as Ms. Victory,
She-Cat and the Blue Bulleteer are about to be sacrificed,
Rip Jaw crashes into the Amazon city bent on stealing
the time machine. As the battle rages, Tara and the rescued
Rita emerge from the time portal followed by a horde of
prehistoric beasts that scatter Amazon and gangster alike.
The Femforce quickly take control of the city and hustle
the time machine away in Rip Jaw's Rover, leaving him
a captive of the Amazons. Enraged, he fights his way out,
swearing to get the device back and exact violent revenge.
Homebound in the V-Jet, Joan calls her daughter and is
shocked to learn that an old acquaintance, Reggie Blodgett,
has come to call. |

Notes:
Turk, prior to his accident, was a member of Vinnie
Fulton's mob, dating his origin to slightly before that
of the Scarlet Scorpion's....Colt's pursuit of the gang
was partly responsible for Rip Jaw's disfigurement....The
South American drug dealer who informed Rip Jaw of the
time machine may have been Marco, who must have spoken
to Rip Jaw prior to this story....Rio Rita is present
but unseen as Rita talks with her via radio.... Reggie
is later seen to have played a part in Ms V's origin,,,.Rita
Farrar's next appearance is in the reprint of this story
included in Untold Origin of the Femforce Special 1. |

them. The pair of evildoers have sent a killer named Chid to
