Synopsis for "Victim Times Three!"
Nathaniel Turner, a former soldier of fortune, has come to seek the aid of Heroes for Hire to protect him and his former colleagues, all mercenaries for hire. They are all targets of their former partner Colonel Eschat, who is seeking to kill them so that he cannot be identified.
When Turner was killed, Power Man and Iron Fist try to save the others: Schiro, the leader of a car theft ring; Davis a munitions seller; and finally Powell, who has made it big selling popular war novels. Each attempt to save these men is met with opposition from these men themselves, and failure when Eschat manages to murder them.
When all are dead, Eschat goes after the real target he was hired to kill: District Attorney Blake Tower. Power Man and Iron Fist manage to bust in at the last moment and rescue Tower from harm, and eventually capture him. As Eschat is being led away from the police, he vows that he will one day return.
