The U.S. Crusier "Brooklyn" spots a weird, flying metal object and radios authorities with information. But the mysterious object blows the ship to pieces as well as the S.S. Aurentic which was sent to investigate. The mysterious craft then appears over Washington D.C. and shoots down every airplane sent to intercept it, then disappears. The President's Cabinet decides to turn the matter over to the dying Dr. Gilday. He travels to his lab to finish work on his Atomic Supervitalizer anyway and accidentally falls into it, gaining tremendous powers and abilities, and vows to take on the craft.
