Synopsis:
Snake Eyes Bentley is released from prison. He plans to go after the two men responsible for putting him in jail, D.A. Larry Jordan and Air Wave. Bentley and his gang grab Jordan and leave a bomb to kill him. Jordan escapes the trap and assumes his Air Wave identity to track down Bentley.

Snake Eyes has set up a radio jammer preventing Air Wave from homing in on him. Air Wave locates the source of the jamming and tracks down the crooks anyway. However, Bentley has prepared by cutting the phone line, so that Air Wave falls when crossing them.

Bentley ties up Air Wave and leaves him to fall to his death from a bridge. Once again, Air Wave escapes the trap and defeats Bentley. The crook is then sent back to prison.
