Moon Wars! Iron Man leads the Knights into boarding the Colonizer ship, prompting Arcturus to send the Punisher through the teleport device to the Moon. Iron Man follows, and the Rigellian-Wundagorian battle spills out through the device as well. The Russian heroes enter the fray. On Earth, Iron Man and the Punisher are detected only as invading objects. Madame Masque orders a "supermissile" launched, but Iron Man turns the Punisher to take the brunt of the blast. Both crash land and after a savage battle, Iron Man defeats his alien enemy. With the Rigellians losing the lunar battle Arcturus asks the Knights to join him in invading Earth. However, Recorder #211 arrives, states that other Rigellians have located a new homeworld, rendering the war irrelevant, and arrests Arcturus. Jack of Hearts and the Russians return to Earth in a Rigellian-provided ship, while Rigellians and Knights leave the Moon via the teleport device, which the Recorder promises to destroy.
