Soon, the parents die, but the herbs allowed the boy to survive. 150 years later, a ship stops by the isle and rescue an old man, taking him to London. There, he finds he needs the herbs to live. He recreates the plant, which gives him super-strength. To fight crime, he sets up crooks, then tips off the police by radio messages as "Elixir -- The Voice!"
