Synopsis
What is the meaning of HYDRA – a mysterious evil that spans oceans and continents? Who are the black clad men – with V's tattooed on shaven skulls – who appear in the wake of wars, earthquakes, fires, and other catastrophes? The final mumbled words of a dying man draw the PHANTOM into an amazing web of violence, crime, and murder – the web of THE HYDRA MONSTER.
