In Skyprobe he accidentally killed off the astronauts. Now guilt-ridden, Commander Shaw is out of work and on the bottle until ""6D2"" pick him up and give him a real chance for penance. He's sent to South America to check out reports of strange swamp creatures and sure enough, there's a monster horde, all bred and operated by GRASP scientist John Zan who plans to use his blobs to blitz London. Gurgles, smells, squeals and narrow escapes for the gothic glutton, but the Commander seems to be improving with age.
