Roger is ecstatic with his birthday gift. (COMIC: The Orbitus)
Roger Marlow was the son of Captain Rod Marlow.
On 18 October 2612, his eleventh birthday, Roger's father got him an orbitus as a present. When "space gangsters" Karsoff and Sheer learned this, they kidnapped the boy. They offer to exchange him for the orbitus, which was a powerful piece of Skarosian technology. The orbitus itself managed to rescue Roger and help his father catch the kidnappers.
The police told Roger that there was a reward for their capture. He made sure the money went to worthy causes, since he felt amply rewarded by having the orbitus. (COMIC: The Orbitus)
