Ms.V flies for the first time in the modern FF stories.... 1st app. of the Femforce's Florida, as seen by the local attractions Ocean World & Dinkleworld.

Notes:
An important 4-pg story that reintroduces a major character from the Paragon days.... This story foreshadows Ms V's transformation into Rad.... the term "synesthesia" is used for the first time at AC... Synn's full name is not revealed until FF 6 (1).... Synn does not show the lighter, arrested development side of her nature that she later does.... She-Cat's brief recap of Synn's origin is told more fully in FF 6 (1).

3rd Story: Copy Cats (4 pgs)

Credits:
Bill Black, writer / artist

Synopsis:
Having tracked down Dr. Pretorius from the components in the giant She-Cat robot, the real She-Cat breaks into Cybernetic Facsimiles, Inc. Taking out the guard, She-Cat soon discovers life-size robots of the entire Femforce. Suddenly she is attacked by a robot head of a prehistoric beast and by her own robot double. She defeats both, but during the battle, Dr. Pretorius spirits the other robots away, promising future trouble for the real-life team.

Notes:
She-Cat robot is still wearing old costume.... She-Cat is rightly more concerned about the damage the robots may do to the Femforce's reputation than to any threat from the robots themselves.... Dr.Pretorius, though not seen explicitly, is presumably part of the army of villains recruited during the Shroud Wars trilogy in FF 34-36.

The captured Moon gloats that the AC team's hatred of Colt will now be permanent once they awaken. Colt is able to contact Nightveil, who subtly alters each man's dream, allowing Colt to save them and renew their faith in her.
