Trent and Amelia have no idea what Japan was. It stands to reason, as they were born on this prison planet, and very little history has survived to their generation.

Elements of Zik’s costume design were indeed inspired by samurai armour. Not for any particular reason other than it looks cool… and because Zik dislikes getting kicked in the nards.

So here we get the first glimpse of Amelia’s sense of humour. Not the best first impression there, eh Zik? Hey, have you told your friends about Zik yet? If you know someone who likes science fiction, please pass the link on! I’d really appreciate it. I’d love to share Zik with more people, but I need your help to get the word out. Thanks for reading!

Zik’s savior is revealed! And what a revelation! Zik is impressed by the fierce beauty before him. What a way to meet a gal, eh?
