Multi-Man survives an explosion which gives him super-strength. He escapes prison and meets with Gurk, who wants Multi-Man to help him collect parts of a statue. After Multi-Man steals a part of the statue, the Challs follow him to Central America where Gurk and Multi-Man have gone for the last piece of the statue. The Challs revert Pramble to his normal form, as Gurk uses the statue to unlock a lost tribal treasure. Escaping, Pramble is speared by natives and emerges as a super-genius in a frail body with a giant head. But the natives help capture Gurk and Multi-Man and reclaim the treasure.
