All I wanted to do was have some R&R from my time in space with the Marine Corps. My tour was done, my days fighting bad guys over once and for all. Or so I thought. But damn was I wrong.

In 1967, US Air Force fighter pilot James Shively was shot down over North Vietnam.

I'm back with my super hot superhero ladies, but this time we have a couple of new friends in the mix.

Luckily for us, it seems her mission could lead us to the location of a missing member our party, along with some Tier One supers and, possibly, my father.

Imagine a world without bees, butterflies, and flowering plants. That was Earth 125 million years ago. Turn back the clock 400 million years, and there were no trees. At 450 million years in the past, even the earliest insects had not yet developed. And looking back 500 million years, the land was devoid of life, which at that time flourished in a profusion of strange forms in the oceans. These and other major turning points are the amazing story of evolution.
