"This Dactyl is in a bit of a hurry, and that aggressive Damsel Fly is a concern. I once had aspirations to become an entomologist, hence the many insects found in my work. Return to the Lobby first appeared in Miles Russell’s 1992 Nonsports Illustrated produced trading card set, titled Dactyls. The following narrative, written by Miles Russell, appeared on the back of this card: “At journey’s end, the Dactyl, weary and now alone, prepares for his long perilous descent home" - Rodney Marchetti
