Synopsis:
Hendrickson is recruited to act as the King of Boravia when his double King Rudolph disappears. Rudolph is captured by his rival the Iron Duke, but Hendrickson convinces the villain that he is the real king. The Blackhawk turns himself over to the Duke to ensure Rudolph's release. The Blackhawks are then forced to free Hendrickson from the Iron Duke's stronghold. Hendrickson's courage has also inspired Rudolph, who comes to the team's aid with an army. The Iron Duke is defeated, and Hendrickson safely rejoins his team.
