50 - Smash Alien Igorl
51 - Riddle of the Cobalt Monster
Dr. Gori outsources again this week for some help with his latest plan to create a radioactive cobalt bomb. It's a definite step up from his last alien temp worker hire when he took over a small village with alien frog men, and George and the Pollution G-Men have their hands full when brain-controlling aliens called the Igorians take over a mining town. George and friends investigate a strange energy source in the mining town, and they find all of the townspeople in a trance. Apparently having no physical form of their own, the Igorians use the energy source to invade and possess the minds of human hosts, transforming them into agile and faceless killing machines.

I have to wonder if the introduction and success of Toei's Kamen Rider had any influence on this story because it is perhaps the most choreography-heavy action story in the series involving the human cast.

| Eeeeeee! (I fully expect maybe three people will get that joke.) |
The G-Men struggle to fend off the Igorian assault, and the human cavalry is vastly outnumbered. Things get even worse when Gori unleashes the mighty Cobalt Dragon from the depths of the Earth to carry out the rest of his plan. Absorbing the radiation from the Cobalt-40 in the Earth, the Cobalt Dragon is a walking time bomb building to critical mass. If Gori's plan succeeds, the Cobalt Dragon's meltdown will blanket the planet with radiation and destroy all life on its surface.

| How many monsters has Gori already turned into walking bombs? I think they need to unionize. |
Luckily, Spectreman shows up to save the day.. but wait. George is Spectreman, and he's been injured and is unable to transform. Only George knows that this battle between an impostor Spectreman and the Cobalt Dragon must be a hoax to throw the humans off Gori's trail, but he can't convince them of the truth without revealing his identity. The G-Men believe the Cobalt Dragon threat to be extinguished, but the mysteries of the impostor Spectreman and the source of the Igorians' power still remain. Gori's plan is far from finished, and the people of the mining town only think they are free from Igorian control.
