Starquake
=======

MESSAGE HAS JUST REACHED EARTH OF AN UNSTABLE PLANET EMERGING FROM A BLACK HOLE SOMEWHERE AT THE EDGE OF THE GALAXY. IF THE CORE OF THIS PLANET IS NOT REBUILT IT WILL IMPLODE CAUSING THE WHOLE UNIVERSE TO GO 'KA BOOMF!' - STREWTH A STARQUAKEŠ

THE BIO-LOGICALLY OPERATED BEING IS CHOSEN FOR THIS ULTRA DANGEROUS MISSION - BUT WHY BLOB? `CAUSE OF HIS MIND BLOWING HYBRID CAPABILITIES? OR THE ARTIFICIAL INTELLECT OF HIS ANTI-BRAIN? NOPE - `CAUSE ALL THE OTHER GUY'S HAVE PRANGED THEIR SPACESHIPS. SO BLOB SETS OFF FOR THE OUTER SPACE IN HIS TRUSTY SHIP WITH JUST A FLIGHTBOARD COMPUTER AND A GALAXY A-Z FOR COMPANY - GULP, IS HE GONNA SUCCEED? - WILL HE EVEN GET THERE? - OR WILL THE UNIVERSE AND BLOB GO BLIP?Š

- GOSHAROOTIES WHO KNOWS? BUT ALL THESE AND MANY MORE ANSWERS MUST BE QUESTIONED BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!
