Synopsis
A girl known as “The Kid” discovers a vintage pulp magazine in her attic, and becomes enthralled by its sensational tales: Deep in the jungle, the devious Beetle Queen purloins the fabled Onyx Gem of Zavvenu from its guardian, Jesai of the Jaguars, and leaves Jesai to the mercy of a hideous volcanic demon. Meanwhile, on the Moon, the intergalactic cowgirl Clare de Lune is providing security for world-famous composer Robert von Hesslington when they are ambushed by the lunar bandit Penny Dreadful. Penny kidnaps Robert and chains Clare to a magnetic railway – directly in the path of an oncoming train! And finally, the dastardly Professor Z lures brilliant scientist Doc Danger to his underground lair, shackling her in place and slowly administering a deadly virus intravenously. He pilfers Doc Danger’s blueprints for an elaborate piece of machinery and leaves her to die a grueling death. But the Doc’s superhuman strength – acquired by taking a chemical pill she concocted in her youth – renders the restraints useless, as she easily breaks free of her chains and rushes to retrieve the stolen blueprints.
In the jungle, as Jesai is about to be consumed by the demon, she is saved by an enigmatic detective named The Lady in Black, who explains that the blueprints, composer, and gemstone are part of a sinister plot known as “Project: Uncreate”. The two join forces to recover the gemstone and thwart the evil plot. Back on the Moon, Clare is rescued (and not a moment too soon!) by her partner Satellite Sally, and the cowgirls trace Robert’s whereabouts to an elaborate moon base. They decide to split up, with Clare creating a distraction by dueling with Penny while Sally looks for Robert. But just as Clare is about to win the duel, she is zapped unconscious by a robot belonging to none other than Professor Z!
