Story Summary
Carson and Ilongo fight the terrible half-robot, half-sorcerous abomination Mech-Monster while Genji lies unconscious in the Haunt of Darkness' prison. Carson blows up the Mech-Monster by detonating an explosive arrow in its gullet.
The two remaining Shogun Warriors don't have time to celebrate because their teammate's robot, Cobratra, this time piloted by the evil Maur-Kon, attacks them with rocket fingers and laser beams.
Meanwhile, the traitorous Lieutenant Magar breaks Genji out of prison and hangs her above the living lava pit known as the Pool of Dark Life. The dreadful pink liquid bubbles and oozes and reaches for Genji, who, at the last second, swings out of harm's way and escapes in a tank to join the battle outside.
While Carson and Ilongo fumble about with Combatra, Genji gets to the point and decapitates it with a round from her stolen tank. Maur-Kon escapes, but thankfully, Dr. Tambura has replacement heads.
Carson's girlfriend back home is mad at him and tries to run over a movie crew on her motorcycle. It's just another rad issue of Shogun Warriors!
