Blinded by a mobster's bomb, Dr. McNider gives up the practice of medicine to write articles for crime magazines. But a chance accident, with an owl crashing through the former doctor's window during the night, allows McNider to discover that he can see in the dark [as well as in the daylight with special infra-red goggles he creates], so he decides to adopt the secret identity of Dr. Mid-Nite to round up "Killer" and bring him to justice for his crimes.
