In the first chapter titled “The Evil Eight!”, we learn that Fairfax has drawn attention because it’s become a frequent battleground of super-transformed heroes using the H-Dial. This attracts the Master and his cadre of eight villainous transformations (the Evil Eight) who begin a campaign against the heroes.
The second chapter, “No Freedom for Fairfax!”, emphasizes how the villains tighten their grip on Fairfax; the Master and the Evil Eight impose restrictions and chaos, revealing that the threat is not just physical but also psychological — the heroes must protect the town and its freedom from being overrun.
The third chapter, “In Final Combat”, brings the conflict to its climax: Chris and Vicki (via their H-Dial transformations) launch a final assault on the Master and the Evil Eight’s stronghold. Notably there’s a cameo appearance by President Ronald Reagan, raising the stakes to a national level and suggesting the villain’s scheme has broader ramifications.
