([[COMIC]]: ''[[Encore (comic story)|Encore]]'')]]The Odds decided to extend their vacation in England a little while after foiling Insecto's plans proved anticlimactic. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Battle of Britain (comic story)|Battle of Britain]]'') They tracked a magical signature [[Merv the Griffin]] had perceived, and unearthed [[the Blue Knight]], an immortal Arthurian knight, from underneath a monolith. After the Knight discovered to his shock that his body had wasted away to nothing, and he was an incorporeal spirit in hollow armour, the also-undead Armstrong helped him deal with the initial shock.

Madison began running tests on the Blue Knight while the other heroes freshened up in the Fortress's shower room. They soon had to leap back into action as Rodney informed them, based on what he was seeing on live television, that the ceremony where [[Captain Perfect]] was to be given the Keys to the City by [[Mayor Wilson]] was under attack by a giant robot called “[[Ultimatron]]”. The Odds rushed to the scene, but only succeeded in distracting Perfect, who was knocked out by the robot. They tried to defeat Ultimatron, but had little luck, with [[Centennia]] soon arriving and dispatching it herself. | [[File:Armstrong and Madison in Meanwhile, On Earth.png|thumb|left|Armstrong with [[Professor Madison]] at [[Captain Evening#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Captain Evening]]'s party.

After it transpired that the entire attack had been staged by Captain Perfect as a publicity stunt, he was punched into the distance by Centennia. Impressed, Captain Evening asked Centennia if she would consider joining “the Odds”, and she seemed to agree. To celebrate their victory and Centennia's joining, Captain Evening organised a party at the Fortress, inviting “all his hero friends” — including the Odds, the [[Terrific Two]], [[Glow Girl]], [[Mysto the Space-Wizard]], [[the Big Bad Wolf#In Reality Z-25 31-H|the Big Bad Wolf]], [[Red Riding Hood#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Red Riding Hood]] and [[Terry Tornado]]. Armstrong decided to sunbathe on a deckchair on the roof, incongruously wondering partway through if he had “put enough lotion on”. Later, he clinked glasses with Professor Madison as the assembled heroes watched the sunset from the Fortress's balcony.

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Journey Out Of Misery (comic story)|Journey Out Of Misery]]'')]]After a robot known as the [[Cosmic Solution]] began attacking [[New York City]] (having actually been sent by the [[Cosmic Order]] to carry out the destruction of humanity following [[Armagedda]]'s failure), [[Robot Madison]] summoned as many heroes as she could. Although a small team including [[Mysto the Space-Wizard]], [[Terry Tornado]], [[the Big Bad Wolf#In Reality Z-25 31-H|the Big Bad Wolf]], [[Red Riding Hood#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Red Riding Hood]] and [[the Human Tree]] got there first, [[Captain Evening#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Captain Evening]] soon answered the call, leading most of [[the Odds]] into battle on his [[Skycycle]] — the team consisting, in this instance, of him, [[Merv the Griffin]], [[Centennia]], [[the Blue Knight]], and Armstrong. | ||
As soon as he arrived, he ordered Centennia, Merv, the Human Tree, and anyone else noted for physical strength to try and keep the robot contained while he worked out a longer-term solution with Robot Madison; Armstrong joined in this effort. With [[Hank Richards]]'s surprise contribution, they managed to work out a scheme to distract the robot and drain power from him. It went off according to plan, although this had little bearing on how the threat was ultimately resolved, but as it wrestled itself free of the pile-on of heroes just before Evening connected it to Richards's device, the Solution blew Armstrong apart, scattering his bones, with a punch.
