Incoming Message from the Big Giant Head Page 1 of 3
As part of the Solomons' mission on Earth, Harry had a chip in his brain to communicate with their leader, the Big Giant Head. Harry's voice would tremble before he broadcast a message, which he himself would not hear, from the home planet. The transmissions would end with a sneeze, leaving Harry confused - well, even more than usual - about the contents of the message he delivered.
