It is Peter's first day on the job as a detective and even being the captain's son doesn't prepare him for the shock of finding one of Xavier's sociopathic X-Men kids brutally murdered and washed up on the shore. When the police make little effort to solve the crime, reporter Tom Halloway tries to get to the bottom of the affair and interviews a number of colorful underworld characters including imprisoned shrink, Xavier, himself. Inspired by the pulps heroes, Tom puts on a costume and tracks down the X-Men but gets a less than friendly reception.
