Vega's sister, Princess Lyra, wins a fight to the death, and so earns a new male slave. She soon learns that her slave, Mogon, is a revolutionary sent to spy in the palace. She falls for him, and joins his cause. Together, they attempt to contact the rebel band, only to discover it is a trap set by Syrani, the Security Chief. After Slaying the Security Police, Lyra and Mogon think they are safe, and return to the Palace. Once there, Syrani accuses Lyra of Treason.

Notes
- The issue also includes:
- An Age Undreamed Of, an editorial by Roy Thomas.
- a double-page splash of Red Sonja by Esteban Maroto. After Maroto had sent a pin-up of Red Sonja to Marvel, reducing the amount of clothing she wore, starting the bikini armor take on the character, the pin-up was published in the magazine Comixscene, while Maroto was assigned to draw the double-page splash.[1]
