1 THE MONSTER RODAK:
Rodak, mastermind from space, comes to earth and
contacts Tom Mura of the National Press International
news service, so he can inform the people of earth that
Rodak is here to take over the planet. Mura's son
Mikko takes an image of Rodak with his camera, and
they are left to ponder the expeirence, until Goldarr, a
fifty foot golden rocket-robot arrives outside the Mura
home, and confronts Mikko, needing the camera so he
can have the image it holds, to help him with the effort
to keep the Space Devil from conquering Earth or any
other planets. When Mikko refuses to surrender the
camera, Goldarr magnetically takes it and turns to a
rocket, heading to his secret base with Mikko on board.
2 THE SUBTERRANEAN MENACE
Mikko is taken to the firey core of
Mt. Olympia, home base of Goldarr,
where he meets Silvarr, Goldarr's wife, and Mathusala,
the wise wizard that created the Space Avenger in an
effort to track down Rodak. Silvarr admires Mikko and
asks the wizard to create a son like Mikko for her and
Goldarr.
The wizard obliges, using Mikko as the model, thus
GAM is created! Mikko is given magic whistle, which is
to be used to contact the golden giant and his family of
electronic robots.
Upon returning home, Mikko is told his father is
missing after the train he was riding crashed, on his
way to investigate a story about a monster that tunnels
underground.
