Venna’s Planet is the story of Venna 8632, a strong-willed, highly skilled, soldier-drilled woman on a mission in outer space, where gravity keeps you perky and the future appears to be rather retro. She’s a crew member of the Suntreader, which has been travelling for 50 years (mostly with her occupants in cryogenic hibernation) in order to find a new planet to colonise.

Tired of playing shoot ’em up with aliens, Venna yearns to settle on the newest planet the Suntreader has been orbiting - a world they have named Promise. Unfortunately, the only promise Venna is living on is the continuation of a futile war with the current inhabitants - the Krogs...and that’s reached somewhat of a predictable stalemate.

Combining the episodic thrills of classic film serials such as Flash Gordon or Buck Rogers with the free-wheeling 1960s spirit of Barbarella, Venna’s Planet is a full-cast audio drama adapted from the popular graphic novels written and illustrated by Robin Evans.

In this episode:

Drugged and tied up in the Interrogatron, Venna is horrified to learn the true origin of the Krogs and the Countess’ role in their creation. Clayton and Suhl find themselves imprisoned together in a storeroom - but the ever-resourceful Suhl has an escape plan in mind....
