Line 14:

'''Plot'''

Long to short, the Doc returns to his New York office (from his Arctic hideaway, cunningly having the same name as that of Superman, only this predates the ~~latters~~ - seriously, it was called the Fortress of Solitude in the 1930s books), having felt that something was wrong. It transpires that his father has died and that a package of papers has been left for the Doc.

Long to short, the Doc returns to his New York office (from his Arctic hideaway, cunningly having the same name as that of Superman, only this predates the latter's - seriously, it was called the Fortress of Solitude in the 1930s books), having felt that something was wrong. It transpires that his father has died and that a package of papers has been left for the Doc.

Just as the Doc is about to go through his father's papers, someone tries to kill him. Clearly, the assassin fails. The Doc then gathers his confederates, and they depart for an adventure in South America. Unsurprisingly, there then follows the obligatory hunt for trust, justice and oodles of treasure, and the good guys prevail.

----

* [[Ace Pilot]]: All five of Doc's Associates are excellent pilots but Doc is better than any of them.

* [[Banana Republic]]: Hidalgo

* [[Charles Atlas Superpower]]: Doc. His training regime takes two hours everyday and trains not only his muscles but also every sense. He's been doing since he was a child.

* [[Genius Bruiser]]: All of them except Johnny, and while he's "frail" compared to the rest of them, he's still no slouch in the fighting department.
