The Valhalla probably takes the cake among the three as far as scariness goes, what with freaktastic music, corpses everywhere (with scans revealing how they died), dreadful Phazon monsters in every room, and more Metroids in this one area than has been seen in the entire franchise except possibly Tourian in the original game.

* In ''ComicStrip/DickTracy'', while reports of [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Moon Maid]] sightings were circulating, Dick, his granddaughter Honeymoon, and their GadgeteerGenius friend Diet Smith secretly return to Moon Valley for the first time since TheSixties, only to find it completely abandoned, in ruins and lacking oxygen. Diet explains that when the Moon Governor banished the Earthlings, he had many Space Coups in production. With the Space Coups on the moon misssing as well, Diet assumes the Moon People had left for another place, with no way to track them.
