Trapped in a rocket belonging to Major Tremen, who just tried to destroy the Hulk, Woodgod and himself, Spider-Man finds himself speeding out of the Earth's atmosphere and into space. The falling oxygen would prove fatal even to a wall-crawler, but for the intervention of Warlock. Returning from deep space, he finds the rocket, and senses the quickly fading life within it. Detecting the atmosphere of the Blue Area of the moon, he quickly transports himself and the rocket there. But Warlock senses something strange in his Soul-gem, almost as though it is being commanded to disobey him. Someone or something has tracked Adam Warlock to the moon, and here it will confront him, and his new ally, Spider-Man.
