Synopsis:
A man named Karvac summons the alligator god Scorio and learns the secret of constructing a powerful new weapon that can melt human flesh. Armed with the weapons Karvac and his men attack an army regiment. One soldier survives the battle. He meets Shiera, who in turns enlists the aid of Hawkman. Wearing a net made from ninth metal, Hawkman is able to resist Karvac's weapon and defeat the would-be conqueror. Karvac tries to kill himself, while his men are wiped out. Hawkman prevents the suicide attempt ensuring that Karvac will face justice.
