Synopsis

Humph watches as Matt is taken onto the star ship, and before he has chance to react, he too is caught in its tractor beam! Exploring the ship, Humph stumbles across what looks like a large, upturned, metal egg cup. He dismisses it and continues to search for Matt, trying to think happy thoughts of fish – unaware that the 'egg cup' has sprouted arms and a face, and is gliding along behind him...

Notes

  • Unnamed throughout Matt and the Cat, the 'egg cup' robots are named Lobbs, and were first created for Mike Kazybrid's previous project, Wishy, Washy and Wig, in 1976. Matt and the Cat was the first time he actually used them in a comic![1]
