Johnny Domino teams up with another of Dr Walton's patients, Trudy Thorpe, who needs his assistance in preventing the crooked Dr. Winslow Sutton from resurrecting the evil magician Barzun from the dead. Sutton's hope is to unite him with his daughter, and his wife Lucy so that they may all work together to take over the world by resurrecting more of the undead to serve as the new unhuman race. While battling Barzun's dark magic, Johnny/NightMan learns that he's a ""chosen one"" and that the lightning strike was no accident.
