Plot
In a galaxy far, far away, Jonatren “Jon” Bearhone, a rather charismatic space explorer, travels across space onboard his space-rig, the Regulus, with his sidekick Kenroge “Ken” Corlmea, a depressed intergalactic gunslinger, & droid assistant BRO-4. Of course, the two haven’t been on any space voyages for a while, especially since the evil Rarigian Empire invaded & conquered the known galaxy with an army of space monsters, leaving many of the planets barren. Fortunately, an opportunity comes when Jon & Ken find a cryonic preservation tank holding a beautiful princess named Aelita. Upon regaining consciousness, Princess Aelita explains to Jon & Ken about how she attempted to lead a revolt against the Rarigian Empire a century ago. While she was unsuccessful, her rebels managed to escape &, in the process, killed most of the Emperor’s elite guards. The Empire sent three hundred space monsters to kill Aelita but she managed to escape capture through cryogenic sleep while her warriors managed to kill about half of them.

Now awakened in the present day, Princess Aelita asks Jon & Ken to help her reunite with her rebel comrades so that they can once again face the Ririgian Empire, led by the malevolent yet spoiled Emperor Theodore Rex. And so, believing this to be their biggest adventure, Jon, Ken, Aelita, & BRO-4 travel across the galaxy & fight to liberate it from the Rarigian Empire… while at the same time have a fair number of oddball encounters.
