Comments:
The spelling of Clayburn's last name is given as both Clayburne and Clayborne in this story.

Perdition is incorrectly identified as being in Massachusetts in this story. This is corrected in Challengers of the Unknown #82 which places the town in Pennsylvania.

This story is continued from Super-Team Family #10 and continues in part in Challengers of the Unknown #82.

Synopsis:
The Challengers split up to find Multi-Man. Prof. traces electrical signals to an underwater dome where June is held captive. While the others head to California where Multi-Man has constructed a force field surrounding a secret nuclear plant. Red penetrates the force field and battles his opponent alone. However, Multi-Man teleports away.

Red regroups with Rocky and Ace. They head to Denver where Multi-Man has fled. Rocky battles the villain alone. At the same time Prof. is completing his rescue of June and manages to destroy a device which is providing Multi-Man with power. Without his powers, Multi-Man is defeated.

The Challengers return to their mountain headquarters where it is revealed that Prof. is dying. Clayburne claims he has found a doctor who can help, Heathcliff Monroe from the town of Perdition.
