Synopsis:
Rann is visited by the Mechanimen, a group of robots built on another planet designed to protect the human race and protect them from all weapons. The robots destroy all weapons on Rann in an attempt to end all warfare. When Adam Strange arrives, he suspects trouble so he hides his ray-gun. Adam then convinces the Ranagarans that the Mechanimen are treating humans as children, and he believes they should stand up and fight. Adam retrieves his gun and a secret cache of weapons, but the Mechanimen destroy them as well.

When an alien attack force arrives, the Mechanimen defend Rann and force the aliens to surrender. However, the robots run out of power at the last moment. Adam was able to gain control of some alien weapons and chase off the remaining invaders, before his return trip to Earth via the Zeta Beam.
