XXXVII Century, in the future Mars is a monarchy and each member of the royal family possesses extraordinary powers. King Jarl is the master of thunder, Queen Jane is the mistress of the atom, Crown Princess Thula controls plant life, and little Princess Jane is capable of altering reality itself. The King's sister, Duchess Vanza is an anomaly, apparently lacking superhuman powers. When the Crown Princess is 16 years old, the King and Queen die in strange circumstances and Duchess Vanza becomes regent until Thula comes of age. Princess Jane is locked in a convent of the Sisterhood of Steel, but she soon escapes and travels as a stowaway in a spaceship bound for Earth. During the regency, Thula suffers several terrorist attacks from the Scarlet Shroud organization, but manages to survive unscathed thanks to her powers. Duchess Vanza assigns her a bodyguard, Johnny Fox, nicknamed Rapid Fox, a young but grim seminole warrior with special abilities. The princess and the warrior spend a lot of time together and end up falling in love. The Scarlet Shroud attacks become more and more frequent and soon civil war breaks out on the Red Planet. Princess Jane, now nicknamed the Magician of Mars, returns accompanied by the Inter-space Justice Syndicate. The Princesses of Mars confront the leader of the Scarlet Shroud, who turns out to be (oh surprise!) Duchess Vanza, and Rapid Fox an assassin hired for her to finish off Thula. However Fox's love for Thula is true and he turns against the Duchess, who seriously injures him while protecting the heiress. The Duchess manages to slip away, but the insurrection is put down and Thula is hailed by the people as Queen of Mars. However, the young princess has other plans. After taking care of Rapid Fox until his recovery, the two decide to become members of the Inter-space Justice Syndicate, just like her sister Jane, leaving her cousin, Taal, son of Duke Marsu (King Jarl's little brother), as Ruling Seneschal of Mars.
