Synopsis:
The Inferior Five chase a mugger into the sewers. While searching for the crook, they meet their friend Thor and give him a make-over. As they continue on their pursuit of the crook, the heroes meet Prince Nabob, Iron Pants, and the Cobweb Kid who are looking for Thor and become involved in a murder plot.
The Inferior Five and several of the other people from the sewers eventually gather in a room to find the murderer. The killer then reveals himself as Dr. Diabolical who has been posing as an old lady. The villain then attempts to transfer the powers of the team into one of his henchmen, but instead transfers their weaknesses. Without their frailties, the Inferior Five prevails. In the process the power-transfer machine is destroyed which restored the Inferior Five to normal.
