Synopsis:
The Blackhawks develop a new high-frequency transmitter that inadvertently opens a hole to another dimension. A giant hand emerges from the hole and menaces the island. At first the intent of the hand is unclear, but the team soon realizes that it intends to bring the transmitter back to its own dimension. They speculate that it intends to alter the transmitter and allow its entire body to pass through the hole. The team tricks the creature by handing it a phony transmitter and then destroying the real one. When the hand disappears, the hole closes.
