The IP Heroes & The Search for Cortez's Sword

The year is 1938.

"Hey Pete!"

It's Pete’s old history professor from Rutgers. He knew Pete had expertise and an interest in historical artifacts and handed him what appeared to be a tip of a blade. “If you figure it out you can have it!”

After checking the piece out, Pete had some theories, but needed to follow up on them. That’s when Pete called Kurt. “Hey Pete! Long time no hear,” I said.

Pete said, “I think I’m on to something big, can you and Dick come out here? I’ll explain when you guys get here.”

Astrid is also in town visiting. The three of us fly to New Jersey to visit Pete.

"Hey Pete!”

It’s been a few years since we last saw Pete.

One of Pete’s friends, Darla is an expert on rare blades. She tells us about the extraordinary powers of this sword and that we are not the only ones looking for it.

We pick up our buddy Louie in San Francico and head out to a location somewhere in the Pacific by a tramp steamer. Unfortunately, we are intercepted by a German U-boot. The evil Nazis throw us in jail for questioning.

That same night, we jump the two German guards and grab their rifles. Pete hotwires a truck and we get the hell out.

A native woman waves at us to stop.

Natives are chasing her. They don't look too friendly!

Melee with the natives! Astrid drops a couple natives with her bow and arrow before they reach us.

We knock out the rest of the natives. Drive Pete Drive! We leave the native lady in the dust.

We take a boat to a nearby island and land on the beach.

Pete said, "This should be the place. There's an abandoned airfield a few miles in."

We are not the only ones on the beach......

The Amazonian women ambush us and we take heavy casualties. Fortunately we recover from our wounds and push on.

What's this? A secret alien base!

Dick spots the aliens coming out of the base!

Astrid and Louie rush into the base and take out the remaining aliens.

The IP Heroes finally locate the abandoned airfield.

The Obersturmbahnfuehrer Mohn offers Kurt a deal. "Hand over the sword blade and I will let you and your friends live."

Kurt replied back with a heavy American accent, "Banana!"

Obersturmbahnfuehrer Mohn commands his natives to charge the IP Heroes. "Kill them all!"

The Nazi natives attack us from all angles! Pete and Kurt fill the air with hot lead with the German rifles!

The IP Heroes survive the onslaught with just a few minor wounds. Bodies litter the airfield!

Kurt is about to capture Herr Mohn.....

When suddenly an evil demon ape is summoned by the Nazi!

We unload all our weapons into the demon. When the demon ape goes down, Pete jumps on top to finish him off with Cortez's Sword blade to the throat.

"Hey Pete, you ok?"

"What happened to Mohn?"

"He fled into the jungle."

"We'll get him next time."

"Help me get off this over-grown monkey."

The IP Heroes vs Herr Mohn

Herr Mohn, a long time nemesis to the IP Heroes, is finally cornered and captured. Kurt, Dick and Louie, tracked down Herr Mohn from Heidelberg, Germany, Japan, Korea and finally to New Dehli, India where he was about to unleash his Nazi super weapon. Here's how it ended, in a public park:

Sure enough something was going on behind the public bathrooms – no person would ever think of going back there! Several men were rushing around loading what appeared to be a large tracked vehicle on to a large truck. “That must be Mohn’s secret weapon!” said Louie. Kurt asked the police officer to go over there and tell everybody to stop what they are doing. “Why me?” said the police officer. “Ok, we’ll all go over there spread out and stay in cover,” said Kurt. The group advance behind trees and rocks.

One of Mohn’s men opened fire. The IPer’s returned fire. Mohn was now hiding behind the truck. The police officer was immediately wounded by a stray bullet. Walter was wounded by gunfire from Mohn and wounded. Dick ducked back under cover. Kurt, Louie fired their weapons and advance towards Mohn and his men. The waiter was a fanatic and advanced without a weapon along the bathroom walls until he jumped one of Mohn’s guards. Both Kurt and Louie closed in and were very accurate with their gunfire taking out Mohn’s men one by one. Suddenly Mohn ducked out from his cover behind the truck, Louie had a clear line of sight on him, “Banana!!” yelled Louie and pulled the trigger. Mohn went down. The waiter immediately charged the wounded Mohn capturing him.
