Synopsis:
A modern day pirate calling himself Black Jack attempts to rob a yacht at sea. Aquaman interrupts the robbery. Black Jack abandons the robbery and tries to make his escape, but Aquaman follows him aboard his ship. The pirate surprises Aquaman with smoke and captures his opponent.

Aquaman is forced to walk the plank. Once under the water, Aquaman breaks his bonds and returns to the ship. The pirates fire a torpedo at the yacht they were attempting to rob. Aquaman redirects it and takes out the pirate ship. Black Jack manages to swim to a nearby island, vowing to get even with Aquaman for the loss of his ship and men.
