King of the Rocket Men

Wave of Disaster (1x12)

: 08, 1949

Rocket Man is saved when Burt butts Gordon into the charged doorway. Bryant and Dirken, escaping with the Decimator, use it to start an earthquake and tidal wave off New York harbor when the mayor refuses to pay Dr. Vulcan's billion dollar ransom demand. Rocket Man flies to halt the Decimator's penetration of a volcanic fault in the ocean floor, unaware that a squadron of bombers is enroute to blast its island location off the map. Rocket Man destroys the Decimator, subdues Bryant and dives to safety just as the hut where they were fighting is blown to bits. Jeff persuades Burt and Glenda to allow the mayor to believe that he, not Rocket Man, saved the city from totla destruction and ended Dr. Vulcan's reign of terror.
