The pod was equipped with a unique survival mechanism, which reconfigured the genetic structure of its passenger to match whatever life form it first encountered. And so it happened that Miriam, the slave woman who discovered the pod, found inside a baby boy with her mother's eyes. Stranded on our primitive world for nearly two centuries, the alien adopts the guise of successful lawyer Augustus Freeman IV.

Now things are about to change. Icon's people have found him, and he's about to return to his home in another galaxy. But Rocket refuses to give up the dream. The world needs Icon, and she's determined to find someone to fill that role--even if it means somehow teaching the brain-damaged, 1970s blaxpoitation buffoon Buck Wild what it means to be a hero." -- Superhero genre. -- Call no.: PN6727.M263 I38 2010 ----------------------------------------------------- **** NEW CATALOGING, INDEXING AND CORRECTIONS FOR JANUARY 18-19, 2012 ----------------------------------------------------- It Really Happened, no. 4 (1944) CONTENTS: "D-Day Demons" 6 p. -- "Dr. David Livingstone" 9 p. -- "Ace of Aces, Major Alexander Pokryshkin" 5 p. -- "Rear Admiral Charles Wilkes" 7 p. -- "For Total Victory" 3 p. -- "Savage Safari" (Arthur Loveridge) 5 p. -- "Chaplain Albert J.
