In the setting of ''[[Rocketmen]]'', the solar system is colonized. Humanoids live on all of the inner planets, and most of the moons of the gas giants. However, the earth is under the control of the fascist Legion of Terra, who are allied with the brutal Martians in an attempt to conquer the rest of the solar system. It is up to a few valiant heroes to defeat the Axis of Evil and restore peace to the solar system.
''Rocketmen'' originally started out as a
Later, [[Capcom]] produced a ''Rocketmen'' video game, where players can play characters within the setting. Gameplay is a typical top-down shooter, with humorous (and plot-relevant) cut scenes. The first game consists of ten sequential missions, where the player helps foil a plot by the Axis of Evil to build and deploy a gravity gun. A sequel expansion pack - ''It Came From Uranus'' - adds three more adventures, where the player frees the forces of Saturn from being controlled by the Axis of Evil.
The central characters are Nick Sion, a stereotypical action hero, his buddy Zack. and the Venusian Alecto Mink. Empress Armada of Mercury also plays a role in both the video game and the movies, as does the Martian Captain Mash.
Clearly inspired by ''[[Buck Rogers]]'' era serials.

* [[Actual Pacifist]]: The Venusians as a whole. Alecto Mink has to overcome her race's anti-violent conditioning. Venusians accept physical contests such as wrestling though.
