Synopsis | The Torch accompanies the Parrot on his prison train to California in order to help a chemist who wishes to examine an inactive volcano for sulfur deposits. The Parrot's henchmen help him escape the train by flying close, in a plane with an extended ladder, which the Parrot climbs. The Torch loses the plane in the clouds. He follows the chemist to the volcano and conducts the requested examination. The Parrot and his men follow him and plant dynamite in the volcano. When it goes off, dam water flows towards the volcano which the Torch diverts. The Parrot tries to get away in a car but the Torch burns his way in. The Parrot loses control of the car and crashes. The Torch is fine but he tells Toro that the Parrot is dead. |
