Alan Moore sets forth on a journey to the Moon in a spaceship designed by Professor Manheim. He is surprised to see another spaceship. It belongs to space pirates led by Jana. Jana has captured Professor Fenrir and his daugher, Desua. Jana tells the High One, ruler of Moon Men, that the prisoners are spies. Fenrir convinces the High One that Jana is lying. The Ruler of Moon Men has Alan Moore fight Jana. The lower gravity of Earth gives him the advantage over Jana.
