Synopsis:
The Boy Commandos are transported to the year 3500 by a scientist named Zytl. The future of Earth depends on their ability to fight crime, since that knowledge has been forgotten after centuries of peace. Now the future Earth has fallen under attack by robot creatures. The Boy Commandos battle the creatures, learning that they are controlled by humans inside the machines. Though the Boy Commandos prevail, Rip Carter is shot and killed. Fortunately future science is capable of restoring his life. The Commandos are then sent back through time without retaining any knowledge of the future.
