In the event that Zandor was captured or incapacitated, Tara would be left in charge to defend and/or organize Zandor's rescue. (What do you think? Does this fly?)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09761593892843062654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1142853949883354813.post-59212823643517379822010-07-27T19:39:04.963-07:002010-07-27T19:39:04.963-07:00I can understand your minor complaint's on the...I can understand your minor complaint's on the OCO moments. Particularly Zandor's whole vine/sling shot act, it looks cool but we never got to see how he landed.<br /><br />Wish they could have delve more into the pod creatures. I like the design of them but they could use some upgrades in the weapons department. Like pump high voltage out of their tentacles to subdue the more powerful opponents. Also, seeing the main baddie behind these monsters would have been nice. Either someone (or something) totally new or could have been one of the few reoccurring villains in the show. Could say Sta-Lak may be behind them but that's my theory. Who would see behind the Pod Creatures?<br /><br />And yes, the whole "Tara stays at home while the MEN handle the hard work" shtick is old on so many levels. I'm pretty damn sure Tara could handle herself against a bunch of metal lawn darts.<br /><br />Finally, fantastic job on the Tara vs the Pod Creatures pin-up. Nice to see Tara bringing some guns to the battle if you can read between the lines. ;)Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02458096804211542442noreply@blogger.com
