Feature(s): Don Starr
Character(s): Don Starr; The Actor; Headhunter
Synopsis: Deep within The Actor's lair Don is trapped in a quicksand-filled room. He is attacked by a sword-wielding maniac.

He sees some men who are imprisoned there and helps them to escape. The actor fires a steel dart at Don. It misses, but hits some electrical cables, creating a blast which renders Don unconscious. A small fire starts next to Don's body. The Actor, instead of attending to the blaze, curses Don and vows to see him burn.
