A spaceship flies over the city dropping a message from Comrade X of the Red Planet, stating that earth must be destroyed so that his world's growing population can survive. A gigantic, monstrous eight headed creature wreaks havoc on the city and the flaming duo tackle it, but the creature is fireproof. Its fang-like tongue poisons Toro but The Torch rushes him to Dr. Carter, who tells him the boy's life can only be saved by a blood transfusion; luckily the Torch has the same blood type. As buildings continue to be destroyed the Torch uses the Doctor's chloroform to knock the creature out.
