Summary
Star Command is a specialised division of the Space Academy responsible for conducting top‑secret operations. Jason serves as one of its most accomplished agents. During the first season, the organisation is led by Commander Canarvin, who is succeeded in the second season by Commander Stone, a blue‑skinned officer. Senior personnel include Professor E. J. Parsafoot, an eccentric inventor, and Captain Nicole Davidoff, a leading computer specialist.
Nicole departs after the first season and is replaced by Samantha, a super‑strong alien who assumes the role of the series’ principal heroine. Jason and his colleagues are assisted by two robotic companions: Wiki, a palm‑sized multifunctional robot created by Parsafoot, and Peepo, who previously appeared in Space Academy.
The principal antagonist across both seasons is Dragos, a one‑eyed megalomaniac whose overarching objective is the destruction of Jason and Star Command. In the second season, Dragos is supported by a cadre of alien confederates distinguished by descriptive monikers such as Bug Face and Fish Face.
