Synopsis:
The Challengers track down Tino Manarry who was captured by the Legion of the Weird. The Legion plans a trap for the Challs and send Tukamenon to attack them. The Challs trick the mummy into believing that Prof is dead. Tukamenon did not want to kill anyone, so he turns against his master Kaftu. When Prof is revealed to be alive Tukamenon kills himself for murdering Kaftu. Without two of their members the Legion is forced to flee. The Challs succeed in Tino's rescue, and the spell which allowed him to share sight with Red is broken.
