- It depends how rabid they are. I can only think of one ST-Daxam connection:
-
- A Long Time Ago (okay, it was Swamp Thing #97, in 1990) when the world
- was Much Different (Wheeler was writing) and so were the plots (ie, the
- *first* time Tefe was kidnapped), the Swamp Thing had to travel to Hell.
- On his way, he met a number of dead aliens (being light-years from their
- own after-realm, they lived on the outskirts of ours). One of these
- was Lar Gand's father, the Daxamite who sacrificed his life for Earth
- (ie, flew back into Earth's atmosphere after finding out about its lead,
- without first putting on a protective suit, and instead of simply sending
- Daxam a message by ship or by ship's communicator). They chatted briefly.

- right to buy it.--Scott Jones
