Johnny Future [John Foster]; The Master [The Evil head of the S.S.S. - Secret Society of Scientists]; Dr. Felda; Dr. Felda's assistant [unnamed]; A Giant Beast-Man [unnamed]
High above London's ancient city an impressive figure sweeps soundlessly across the night sky...
Johnny suddenly realizes that he can fly! He tests his new power and then goes back to work. Meanwhile, The Master, head of the S.S.S., has heard of Johnny and wants to learn what the full extent of his powers might be (in case he creates trouble for the S.S.S. in the future.) He orders two lackeys, Dr. Felda and his assistant, to use their "Evolution Speeder" to create their own man of the future from a single-celled organism. They reluctantly comply but, minutes later, something goes wrong. The machine explodes and out steps a twenty feet tall savage, primitive man from the Stone-Age!
