Description:

Alister Bane, erstwhile university student turned multiversal traveler, has had his fair share of life-or-death adventures since joining the extraordinary Professor Odd aboard her dimension-hopping ship. This time, she insists, it will be different. This time, they are going to a world as peculiar as the Professor, where even Elo, the bipedal talking wolf, doesn’t need a disguise. And what are they doing in this world? They are going to enjoy dinner and a show.

Specifically, dinner at a sushi bar served by an octopus-man, and music performed by sentient robots and a singer with fantastical fashion sense. But as the Professor regales them with a tale from her distant past, it becomes clear there is a deep connection between Professor Odd and the pop star on stage, with business that has been left unfinished for far too long.

“The Thousand Songs” is the tenth episode in the fantastic adventures of Professor Odd and her cohort: Elo the mutant wolf, Alister the misplaced university student, and Dave, the bright green tentacle creature.

It’s all well and good to use your space-manipulating oddity of a home to open a portal into a starship for a little innocent nebula-gazing, but when the crew of said ship catches you things can get awkward fast.

This is the problem encountered by Professor Odd and her friends, which turns out to be the first in a string of problems including, but not limited to: what is this ship even doing here? (It is in the wrong universe.) Are those giant space humanoids peaceful, or actually weapons of absolute destruction? (The answer is yes.) And last but not least: how is everyone going to get home? But Professor Odd has yet to leave a problem unsolved, and she’s not about to start now—even if it means risking her own life.

“Star Walkers” is the ninth episode in the fantastic adventures of Professor Odd, multiversal traveler extraordinaire, and her cohort: Elo the mutant wolf, Alister the misplaced university student, and Dave, the bright green tentacle creature.

Description:

Asynchronous time travel is a tricky thing. Some universes are flexible enough to maintain various timelines without collapsing into paradoxical situations. Others get around the problem by not allowing it to happen at all.

But when Professor Odd and her crew visit one of these “temporally rigid” worlds they discover someone has been messing about in both the past and the future. What began as a piece of cake turned inexplicably to pie turns out to be a tremor from a catastrophe that occurred outside of conventional time—sending the universe into spiral of self-destruction.

Tumbled together with a mysterious boy and his time-traveling blue horse, Odd, Alister, Elo and Dave find themselves on an adventure across the eons to the far distant future. And to avert the impending destruction of the universe they must step outside time and space altogether.

Luckily, Professor Odd has just the thing for that…

“Chronostrophe” is the eighth episode in the serial adventures of Professor Odd, multiversal traveler extraordinaire, and her cohort: Elo the mutant wolf, Alister the misplaced university student, and Dave, the bright green tentacle creature.
