SPACE FAMILY ROBINSON comic book 1-10

ALLIES: Survivor of Argo's experiments who escaped--Lonas of planet      Syltron who came to Argo's planet six months ago. Skinny body,      bald elongated head, small eyes and nose, one rounded foot    like DOCTOR WHO's THE SENSORITES. He is extremely tiny.

WRITTEN INFO: (from the front cover): SpaceMobile--launched from   their space station home, The Robinson's "family car,"  the     space mobile of supersonic speed, is used by young Tim and Tam Robinson for space explorations. Two identical spacemobiles   are housed aboard the space station. One can be fired from a stabilizer, while the second one enters the opposite side. Mounted on top of the control panel is a "space language"     translation machine. The tele screen gives the pilot a close      up view of his destination. The storage area, between the     engine and the pilot's compartment, contains space helmets,      food, clothing, a small machine shop, and space tools. Four landing rockets and three retractable legs, mounted on the underside of the spacemobile, allow the craft to land gently    on rough terrain. (from the back cover): Space Station: Taking    time out from their scientific duties aboard Earth's first     space station, the Robinson family enjoy the pleasures of      their sun deck and garden. The hydraulic conveyance in the      spacemobile garage functions automatically. It "lifts"    incoming spacemobile aboard and then positions it for    launching. Supply rockets, sent up from Earth, are scooped up    by a magnetic, movable hatch. Moving at great speeds, split second timing is required for the rocket rendezvous. In the observatory-lab, scientists June and Craig Robinson study the     mysteries of space, chart new galaxies, and record space data      for our planet, Earth. June Robinson, in the ultra modern      kitchen, holds a roast that cooks instantly by electronics.   Most meals are prepared by the mere push of a button. The      recreation room contains screens for TV and Movie viewing, games, and exercise equipment. Earth's first space station is    truly a "home" away from home.    

QUOTES:

CONTROL MAN: "Gentlemen...the results are positive. Earth     Station      Number One is Lost in Space! There is nothing we can do! If   there is a solution, the answer is out there...with the         Robinsons."   

ALIEN LONAS: "These giants are from Earth!"

TIM: Poppin' planets! We're probably using up a month's supply          of their food in one sitting!

GEAR: Language translator headsets (there are also mini   translators); Tim uses an alien anti gravity rifle gun on the     Trogs, killing them as they float into space; Tim notes this gun looked like one used by the blue people in the planet    Orious--a kind of immobilizing ray gun; Pondran Patrol Ship is     still smaller than SS1 even though the Patrol Ship holds     giants;

CLOSING NARRATION: The Robinsons are hopeful of reaching their      destination, but what lies ahead of them, as they travel through the vast, unknown sky, no one knows.

SPACE FAMILY ANNUAL: This tale appears as a text story.   Illustrations which follow the tale and the other text stories     are different, very different from the comic versions. The     Trogs look very different, blobbier and red on the bottom and    green throughout but more on top. Tim's spacesuit is yellow    for most of the annual, cover and interior art. The inner     cover wrap around seems to come from THE PIT OF DOOM.
