The Javelin is a big game hunter who has contracted a rare disease which drives him to kill at certain times of the month. He uses carbon dioxide gas to put out Torch and Toro's flame and overpowers them. He makes it appear to police that they have killed a girl so the police chief attempts to arrest them but they resist arrest in order to track down the Javelin. When they apprehend him and turn him over to the cops, the police chief forgives them.
