This Week: The Velveteen Submission

The classic boy-meets-girl-meets-her Space Pirate father-meets... well, everyone else on an doomed Interstellar Lighthouse. Doomed? Yes, the lighthouse is about to be obliterated by an approaching space cruiser unless someone can do something. A hot bath is suggested.

Terror rules the skies as a swarm of rocket-clad pirates descend upon Toronto, pulling a string of impossible crimes like a pack of murderous magpies. Can the Red Panda and the Flying Squirrel free the air from these villainous vultures, or is the city destined to fall to the… Reign of the Rocketmen?

This Week: Peter Galaxy, Interstellar Envoy

They used to be big stars on the radio, Peter Galaxy and his sidekick, Dr, Simon. Now they're just two retired actors playing cards on the front porch and riding herd over their grandchildren. But can these two old-timers find work for 300 billion illegal aliens?

Some heroes wear masks, some work shrouded in mystery and menace and others still fight the good fight against the armies of darkness. And others... others get rotated home and sent out on the Bond Drive. But even they still have a role to play, and events set the Red Panda and the Flying Squirrel in motion on the word of... The Conquering Hero!

They say that a little learning is a dangerous thing, my friends, but in all fairness, they don't usually mean the life-and-limb variety. But when a would-be writer of hard-boiled fiction hires a certain team of his and hers private detectives to help his prose ring true, he had better drink deep or think twice about the whole "Pierian spring" business.

The long game of Professor Zombie's forces is about to burst forth upon Toronto with a terrible fury. With the ranks of his allies diminished by the war, can even the Red Panda cheat death on a scale this massive? Can the city's masked marvels prevent the fall, or is the city doomed to become the capital of an... Empire of Death?

There are many days when the life of a private detective is not nearly as interesting as you might imagine. The clock ticks, the sun makes its way resolutely across the sky and not much else happens. And on other days, the door bursts open and opportunity strides in, reeking of after-shave and waving an action-packed expense account about like he owned the place. And when that happens, best buckle up, friends, 'cause this is The Big Time!

Professor Zombie's all-out war on the city continues to rage, and if Toronto's masked protectors are to have a chance of defeating her, they must begin to understand what has brought about the change in one of their oldest foes. But when the veil is lifted on some of the darkest secrets of the Allied war effort, will even the Red Panda be able to solve... The Chimera Protocol?

Is it still a Christmas Card if it comes gift-wrapped in noir and hard-boiled as a three-hour egg? Yeah, we think so too. Pour yourself an egg nog and see if Jack and Trixie make it... Home for the Holidays!

The masked protectors of Toronto celebrate 100 episodes as only they can - fighting to thwart a plot of unimaginable horror! But with Professor Zombie's rage reaching a fevered pitch, it may take the unlikeliest of team-ups to save both the city and Christmas at the same time!
