Tara is drawn into the giant squid and discovers it is the
mechanical construct of Randall Crowley, who now holds her
and Janis captive. Ms. Victory, Captain Freedom, and Riot
attack the squid and rescue the two girls. Crowley escapes,
though She-Cat later captures his men on Jungle Island.
Meanwhile, Laura, now living in the penthouse of the hotel
she owns, receives an invitation to a dinner for TC Fremont
hosted by Stella Stargaze and also, attended by Tara and
Janis. She-Cat and Ms. V, along with the O-1 team, finally
track down Crowley, and he is brought back to Oceanus One
for trial. That same night, at TC's party, Stella enters
with the guest of honor, whom she has now begun to control.
Tara spots Stella wearing the skin of her beloved tiger
Kipling, realizes that she was the one behind all of the
poaching, and attacks her in a berserk frenzy. |

Notes:
Tara & Crowley are revealed to be former Florida
State classmates.... In Stella's origin her power over men
is seen to derive from a hypnotic eye stolen from her former
employer.... Ms. V's suspicions of Stella are aroused when,
she hears Crowley profess such complete devotion to her....
Tara's status as a non-official member of the FF is shown in
her omission among the head shots of the group on the splash
page..... Tara's attitude toward men becomes more
apparent. |
