Fridge Brilliance

• How exactly did Pazuzuli, the disembodied Stardroid, end up in Reset Man's head? The answer is actually in the comic but scattered around. When Pazuzuli's identity is revealed◊, Quintet refers to him as 'an evil pebble from space'. The rest of the warrior caste 'lesser deva' Stardroids likewise have names which mash together occult references and minerals◊ and appear to have alternative forms resembling glowing meteorites. If you scoot all the way back to one of the Boring Replecture comics at the beginning of No Future, Gate explains that the the power source of robots is energenium◊, an element not found on Earth. Pazuzuli's mind isn't just data in Reset Man's head: Pazuzuli is in Reset Man's power core. The true form of the Stardroids is lumps of Energenium, and Pazuzuli was refined into the power core of Reset Man. This also explains why Pazuzuli remained in Reset Man's old body◊ instead of being copied over to Reset Man's new body: the evil pebble is still in the core of the old one.
  • To really hammer this home, searching for Eenergenium◊ in the form of energen ore is one of the duties of the moon gate robots in Mysteries of Space. When the moon base detects a load of energen ore, in reality they have detected Ra Moon and the deactivated Stardroids... and after going to Ra Moon and likely interacting with another of these Energenium pebbles, Ice Man is subsequently possessed by a Stardroid.
