This story takes place during the days of Camelot.

Synopsis:
A knight with a magnetic sword menaces Camelot. The Shining Knight rides out to stop the brigand, but has his own sword pulled from his hand. The armorless knight is unable to penetrate Justin armor, but he wounds Victory.

Victory's wounds prevent Justin from riding, so he constructs a chariot for Victory to pull. The Shining Knight and Sir Butch then pursue the armorless knight and defeat him with several other modern inventions such as roller skates.
