The Fury helps L.A.S.E.R. with a frozen Specimen taken from Antarctica. After leaving, he runs into Kraken agents and fights them. After defeating them, he runs into Voidoid who uses new technology to fight against the Fury. While they fight, the specimen awakens and reveals itself to them to be a T-Rex with psychic abilities.

  • Sky Solo is a female Nick Fury.
  • The two villains mentioned by Voidoid, The Dune and Pyroman are likely homages to Sandman and Molten Man.
• Kraken is a homage to Hydra.
• In the second letters page, "The Fabulous Fury Fan Page", Voidoid's true identity is hinted to be Bash Brannigan, Rick Judge's high school football coach.
