Story and Situation[]
Steve sneaks into a secret Factor X facility on the moon Earlex and is caught. After being mindwiped, he wakes up in a scientist's room alongside a sentient moon who he discovers was Gron-Fresnell. After waking up the moon, he tells Steve that Factor X had learned about him and wanted to experiment on him. However, he was too large, so they invented a shrink gun that shrunk him down to size so they could examine him.
Steve attempts to return Gron-Fresnell to Outpost X to enlarge him, while avoiding Factor X's traps.
