Synopsis:
The Blackhawks track down an alien who is stealing oxygen tanks with a special lift beam. As the Blackhawks approach their target they are stopped by strange weapons used by the alien. After several encounters, the alien has the Blackhawks at his mercy, but he cannot kill them.

The alien, Jixjika, explains that he is being forced to steal the oxygen, which is deadly to his people, by Plutonian criminals. The Blackhawks agree to help the alien. Blackhawk uses the lift beam to enter the alien ship and trick the criminals into surrendering. Jixjika then returns home with the criminal gang neutralized.
