I hope your pup is doing ok now and makes a complete recovery. I hope you are doing ok too! From one dog mom to another, hugs and sending you the best healing thoughts!! Thank you so much! She is feeling better today, but it is hard watching my girl getting old so fast! Well, me too, but at least I understand what my aches and pains are. I can't explain them to her and she often just seems baffled when things don't work right! |

Who is the guy with the caterpillar eyebrows? He must be key to the whole thing.

I have received my first correct answer to this hunt but will wait to reveal the winners until I have all three.
So CONGRATULATIONS! to the first winner!
For this hunt there are not three levels of prizes; all three prizes have the same value. For this hunt, I decided to combine two of my current favorite pastimes: Making up treasure hunts - and marble hunting. There is a Facebook page called World's Greatest Marble Hunt and they hide beautiful hand-made artisan marbles around the country to promote the artists' works. A fun treasure-hunting adventure - Especially if you have kids!
The prizes for my hunt are three beautiful marbles, custom-made for me by glass artist Andrew Anderson (his etsy store is called andymelts). He generously created these marbles for me as abstract representations of the Earth, the Moon and Mars - all featured in my hunt. Each marble is approximately 1.2 inches in diameter with a value of $30-$40, and will come with the stand as shown.
So, will you be the next one to solve this hunt and win one of these beauties? They are even prettier in person 
Good luck!

Time for a hint?
The following image is NOT the answer - it is a only clue to the answer. Good luck!

Okay, our new guy is Orson Welles as he voices The War of the Worlds radio show. His bad guys came from Mars, as seen past the lunar surface in the earlier picture. How does that tie to an atomic scientist to start the story? Are we looking at Wernher von Braun? The face doesn't seem right.

Just a reminder/ clarification:
This is a story.
Think of it as a comic book without captions. The first image is the beginning of the story and the last image is the end of the story. The story you find should match the details in my "comic book" and tell the story of a person, a place, a thing, or an event.
When I post the solution, it will look just like the hunt, but with captions which explain the story in full.
Feel free to ask any questions and I'll answer the best I can.
Good luck!

Maybe clue? On September 20, 1963, Jack Kennedy proposed a joint US-USSR moon flight.

One more hint? ....
This was originally the first image, but I was afraid it gave away too much...
Good luck!

What is it? I was convinced it was a Nash Rambler until I looked up the pictures and found my memory is twisted.
