- Tommy Tomorrow; Brent Wood; S'Loro the Sorcerer
- Synopsis
- Tommy and Brent save an alien, S'Loro, from being trapped on a planetoid being torn apart by quakes. As a reward, S'Loro exposes them to fumes he claims will protect them from harm. They experience narrow escapes from several hazards, but begin to wonder if it's true. It's not and S'Loro plans to hijack a duridium shipment, planting mines in the Planeteers' path to destroy them, expecting them to believe themselves charmed. But Tommy figured out the scam, noticing that a vulture sent earlier didn't act like a real vulture, so the Planeteers capture S'Loro and his men.
