Captain's Library DINO-RIDERS "Path" Conclusion

We Have Already Seen...

...thrust back in time to perhistoric Earth, human-like extraterrestrials from Veloria and the Rulons, aliens descended from various species, continue their war.

The Velarians communicate with the dinosaurs, forming an alliance, which not all of the Veleron agree with!

OTOH, the Rulons force the dinosaurs to serve them as slaves...

Tomorrow, a Special Captain's Theatre Presentation: the UNaired Pilot Episode!

Captain's Library STAR TREK "Dinosaur Planet" Part 1

...to Boldly Go Where No Dinosaur Has Gone Before!

Let's join the crew of the Starship Enterprise some time after the beginning of their second five-year mission (as shown in Star Trek the Motion Picture [1979])!

You can listen to this story by clicking HERE and an audio player will open in another window!

Stop the audio now.
You'll be able to continue the audio...and the story tomorrow at Atomic Kommie Comics!

Power Records PR45 STAR TREK "Dinosaur Planet"(1979) is different from most of the "record and comic book" series.

It's one of two tales published after the release of Star Trek the Motion Picture, showing the crew in the grey and beige uniforms from the film.
However, the Enterprise itself is rendered as an amalgam of the TV series & movie versions.
And phasers and other tech are incorrectly-illustrated all the way through the story.
Neither of these tales were produced by Neal Adams' Continuity Associates, as all the previous tv show-based stories were.
Instead, Kirby Martin & Associates, a company that handled licensing art on merchandise like coffee mugs, t-shirts, and lunchboxes, was brought in to package the graphics.
Pavel Chekov, who was not on any of the previous Power Records, makes his audio debut here.
And Hikaru Sulu, who was illustrated as African-American in previous Power Records comics is finally rendered correctly as Japanese!

Captain's Library & Theatre LAND UNKNOWN Conclusion

When Last We Left Our Heroes (and Assorted Dinosaurs)...

...a US Navy expedition to discover the source of a flow of warm water from under the Antarctic ice sheet discovers an oasis of tropical vegetation and not-as-extinct as they thought prehistoric creatures, as well as a survivor from a previous group!

Though the editors and color separators followed Alex Toth's suggestions for color effects, sometimes they went awry, making the art a little hard to follow.

For the sake of clarity, here's the original art for the  "serpent's" attack on the survivor of the earlier expedition, Hunter...

Bonus: the original trailer for the movie!
