The Marksman meets his match with his Nazi arch-foe, Cross Bow, who had killed several members of Povalski's resistence, and even took a bolt to the stomach from his enemy's weapon. However, he was saved by a protector made of cork that he wore under his costume, and the fight came down to fisticuffs, which the Baron won.
