Realizing someone is after his technology, Nikola Tesla hires a Master Wong Kei-Ying and Annie Oakley to protect the scientist's Magnifying Transmitter which Tesla is moving by train. It's a good thing he did to, as the train is hijacked and the unlikely pair of a martial artist and cocky sharpshooter are all that stand in the way of the shadowy group getting their hands on another of Tesla's inventions.
There's plenty of action here involving Wong taking down a train load of robbers and the explosion of the train itself when it becomes necessary to destroy Tesla's invention rather than allow it to fall into the wrong hands. Wong and Oakley make for an amusing pair who I wouldn't mind see more of in the future.
The back-up story concludes Atomic Robo and his group's discovery of a giant robot in Egypt. As Robo and the other scientist argue how best to continue with the creature looming large before them, Jenkins takes matters into his own hands and settles the question once and for all. Worth a look.
