Synopsis

Queen Anyana is leader of the country of Delonia on the planet Pluto. Two space traders, Wix and Gurkus, have taken over Delonia. The Space Rangers, including Rex Clive and Speed Lansing, are sent with their scoutcrafts in the cargo hold of a massive ship called the Solario, it is threatened by Wix, the self-proclaimed ruler of Pluto. Wix blows up the Solario, unleashing the Space Rangers on the would-be despot's ragtag group of spacecraft. The Space Rangers handily destroy Wix's fleet. Things work out as well for Gurkus as the failed Wix. Rex and Speed are welcomed to Pluto by Queen Anyana.
