Synopsis

The automated systems inside the submarine activate a localized chronal beacon, altering the physical landscape. Golden Gladiator materializes into the fray. The mixed-era unit must fend off an aggressive herd of armored Triceratops being driven directly toward them by an unseen force.

Collector Notes

The arrival of Marcus, the Golden Gladiator, expands the series' temporal scope to the Roman era. The image of ancient gladiators, WWI pilots, and WWII soldiers fighting dinosaurs side by side is pure pulp comics maximalism, fully committed to its own logic.
