    I was thinking about this last night.

    We all know 48 episodes (plus “Message from Moonbase Alpha”) were made.

    We also know what stories form part of the Canon of the “Powysverse”.

    I was just wondering what stories people include/exclude in their own personal [b]SPACE: 1999 [/b]universe of stories (or as Zack puts it – his Alphaverse)?

    Here’s mine (Novels published by Powys with episode numbers next to them are stories that I wish were actual episodes of the TV Series):

    Just a minor correction (or is it gossip?) — Final Revolution takes place prior to Odysseus Wept.

    Very interesting. Just curious: why did you leave out Immunity Syndrome? And a host of other second seasoners? I guess I would include some of the, if not all of the, Charlton and Look In comics. Some of those were very good.

    Thanks for your comment Robonson.

    If you look down the Year 2 list, you’ll see that strong episodes like “The Immunity Syndrome” & “The Dorcons” are included, but in my own little “[b]SPACE: 1999 [/b]Canon-Verse” I’ve simply re-named them 😉 (have a look at the episodes with an aka beside them).

    I’ve left off 4 of the weaker Year 1 episodes & 8 of the worst Year 2 episodes.

    With “Bringer’s of Wonder” from Year 2, I prefer the compilation movie name of those 2 episodes: Destination: Moonbase Alpha.
