Synopsis:
Zinda learns that the Blackhawks have gone to a remote point on the west coast. Taking Blackie with her, she flies to the location and finds most of the team captured. Hendrickson explains that a machine created by Professor Peters has made a giant organism which controls Blackhawk and Olaf.

Zinda frees the captured members who confront their possessed friends only to be taken over by two additional creatures. Zinda is chased by the entire team, but Blackie bombs Peter’s machine which destroys the creatures as well. With the creatures gone, the Blackhawks regain their senses.
