Synopsis:
While the Spectre battles Richard Redditch in a virtual computer world, Redditch has activated the launch sequence on the countries nuclear weapons using the super computer known as Monster. The Spectre finds that Redditch is feeding off his power as well as that of a million souls that he has captured. By changing tactics, the Spectre is able to force Redditch to retreat back into his deceased body in the morgue. Pete Quarral and Praxis are there and set the corpse on fire. Without a host body, Redditch seems to be destroyed and his power of the launch controllers is reliquished. The one million victims of Redditch awaken from their coma and the threat is ended.
Unknown to the Spectre, Redditch was able to transfer himself into Praxis. He leaves the scene, depowered, but still alive.
