Unfortunately, I doubt Filmation would have ever really done more with the Mara/John relationship than what was presented - it wasn't really Filmation's style. Even so, a second series would have been great to see - more adventures of Blackstar on Sagar are always welcome! I love the fact they are attracted to each other, but that never truly proceeds. It's subtle, and I like it.

It's very much like the relationship between Teela and He-Man in Masters of the Universe, in that it is shown in subtle ways more than a straight up 'romance'

Yes, but then in motu we never had a kiss between a male and female! But we got it in Blackstar!I mean blackstar kisses Katana, why on earth couldn't he kiss Mara? I think filmation did it again in Bravestarr...

Page Forty-Three
Panel One Griffon Guard: Aleeerrrrtttt! The Trobbits attack!
Riff: Hooray! Klone the Changer brings back Mara safe and sound!
Trobbit (could be Burble, Terra or Carpo): Here comes Gossamer and the gems! But what becomes of Blackstar?
Poulo: Tiiiouiiit!
Balkar: We must intervene! Quickly, Warlock! Ignite our Fire Fruit!
Panel Three Balkar: Aim the catapult! Up… er… 340! Fire!!
Panel Four Rif: Look, oh great chief! The heat melts the wall!
Balkar: Reload!
Poulo: Tiioop! Swiit! Boom!
Panel Five Balkar (off panel): Fire!
Trobbit (unkown, off panel): Oooh, beautiful red!
Panel Six Gryphon Guard 1: Aargllb!
Gryphon Guard 2: Alaaaarm! The Trobbits liquefy the Fortress!
NOTES:
* There are those explosive watermelons again! I've rendered them as Fire Fruit, but the translation is 'Explosive Watermelon'
* The Ice Palace seems fairly easy to melt through - why haven't they just done this to Overlord ages ago?
