Spaceman Kaison and the Mystery of the Lunar Base!
In a universe of infinite adventure, one boy dares to go where no one has gone before!
Presenting… SPACEMAN KAISON AND THE MYSTERY OF THE LUNAR BASE!
⬅️ Previously on Spaceman Kaison and the Mystery of the Lunar Base, Spaceman Kaison plunged into darkness! Seized by monstrous tentacles, he fought for survival in the abyss beneath the Moon! With the aid of the lost Captain Blazer, he escaped—but the alien horror stirred! Lieutenant Vega reprogrammed an army of robot miners, but Rodrik Voidclaw plotted his revenge! Can they stop the invasion?
Spaceman Kaison and the War for the Moon!
The battle rages in the heart of the Moonbase 🌖! Captain Blazer 👩🏽🚀, ever the crack shot, takes aim—his laser pistol fires 🔫! The energy bolt severs the cables above Captain Rodrik Voidclaw, and with a deafening CRASH!, a heavy supply crate slams down upon the treacherous space pirate!
Rodrik is captured! But victory is fleeting!
From the shadows of the Moonbase, the towering metal menace known as Brutus, Rodrik’s unrelenting security robot 🤖, marches toward Captain Blazer, its crimson optics gleaming with malice! But before it can strike, a sharp cry rings out!
“Over here, you tin-plated terror!”
It is Spaceman Kaison 🧑🏽🚀, our daring hero! Brutus swivels, locking onto Kaison, its heavy steps pounding against the metal floor. The machine raises a mighty steel fist, but Kaison is faster—he leaps! He clings to the robot’s back, prying at the panel that guards its power core!
Brutus thrashes! With an inhuman strength, it hurls Kaison into a wall, sending the spaceman reeling. But Kaison is undeterred! With a final desperate lunge, he reaches into the machine’s core—and pulls free the battery!
Brutus shudders! Sparks fly! The mechanical brute collapses in a lifeless heap!
Meanwhile, Lieutenant Vega 👩🏽🚀, our brilliant strategist, has done the impossible—her robot forces breach the Moonbase! With military precision, the mechanical legions storm the halls, lasers flashing in all directions! But the ground trembles beneath their feet…
From the abyss, the tentacles rise!
🐙 Grey, writhing mechanical appendages, slick with cosmic horror, slither free from the pit! The Tenebrai, long dormant, are waking!
And then—a new villain enters the fray!
Through the smoke and chaos strides Ivan Krang, first mate to the late Captain Magnus Voidclaw! Cloaked in a flowing crimson cape, his black spacesuit gleaming under the flickering emergency lights, the sinister tactician surveys the scene.
His sharp mind assesses the battle in an instant. Outnumbered. Outgunned. He reaches for his communicator 📱—”Doctor X! Our foes control the robots! The Tenebrai are waking!”
But before he can send the warning—BLAST! A single shot from Spaceman Kaison’s pistol shatters the device! The communicator tumbles from Krang’s hand, its audio crackling as the voice of Doctor X shrieks in frustration:
“What’s going on?!? Krang? Krang!?”
But there is no time for answers!
Captain Blazer acts! With a mighty heave, he rips an electrical cable from the wall! Sparks erupt as he plunges it into the pit below—SHZZZKKKT!!! Energy courses through the abyss! The tentacles writhe, some exploding in a shower of vile green ichor!
Lieutenant Vega, eyes ablaze with tactical insight, issues the order:
“Robot miners! Concentrate fire! Take them down!”
The machines obey, raising their laser rifles—and unleashing devastation upon the remaining Tenebrai!
Beneath the crushed crate, Rodrik Voidclaw seethes with fury! He demands Krang free him! But Krang hesitates. He serves only the Captain of the Space Pirates. And Rodrik is not his father!
Rodrik snarls: “Spaceman Kaison killed my father! And I am Magnus Voidclaw’s heir! I am Captain of the Space Pirates!”
Krang watches him carefully… then, with a curt nod, he agrees.
But as soon as Rodrik turns, Krang strikes! With the butt of his pistol, he knocks Rodrik unconscious! Scooping up the fallen pirate, Krang dashes toward the last remaining spaceship, his mind set on escape!
Doctor X shrieks for answers! But Krang has abandoned his communicator!
The Final Escape
The Moon shakes! More tentacles explode from the pit—hundreds of them!
Captain Blazer sees the writing on the wall. “This fight is lost! We must escape!”
But someone must stay behind. Someone must command the robot miners in this final, desperate battle.
Kaison clenches his fists. “No! We can’t leave Vega behind!”
But Vega, ever the hero, knows what must be done. She places a steady hand on Kaison’s shoulder. “You have to go. I’ll hold them off.”
A fire burns in Kaison’s eyes. But he knows—there is no other way. “Stay safe,” he says.
Elsewhere in the base…
From the shadows emerges Doctor X! Her scarlet medical robes flow like blood, and around her skitter her mechanical spider-drones 🕷️, clicking and chittering eerily.
She faces Krang. “Where is my patient!?” demands.
Krang, the opportunist, smirks. “Rodrik is unconscious. If you want him, we leave—now.”
Doctor X bares her teeth. She is furious—but she knows he is right. With a flick of her wrist, her spider-drones scuttle forward, lifting Rodrik’s limp form onto their metal backs.
From the hallway—A WAR CRY!
Spaceman Kaison LEAPS! With a mighty FLYING KICK, he slams into Doctor X, sending her sprawling!
Krang wastes no time—he grabs Rodrik’s unconscious body AND Doctor X, hauls them both onto the last remaining spaceship in a desperate attempt to blast off!
WHO WILL WIN THE BATTLE FOR THE MOON?!?
The robot miners fire relentlessly into the pit of tentacles! But can they stop the full awakening of the Tenebrai?!
Will Ivan Krang escape with Rodrik Voidclaw and Doctor X?!
Can Spaceman Kaison, Captain Blazer, and Lieutenant Vega survive?!?
