Still stinging from his defeat by the mysterious Spectreman, Dr. Gori dispatched Karas with the lizard monster Midoron. Making the saurian grow to a gigantic size, the gorilla-like goon ordered the dragon to attack a small village. Using its mist, the monster made short work of the town before it moved on to a nearby dam. Luckily for humanity, it only took two of self-defense jets to drive the monster away from the dam. Soon after the planes, Spectreman arrived on the scene. Unbeknownst to the robot hero, Midoron was but a mere diversion to keep Spectreman busy while Dr. Gori completed his subterranean base. The titanic saurian attacked the warrior from the stars with unrelenting fury, but Spectreman was just too powerful. Never once growing to his maximum height, the robot warrior vanquished the monster with a combination of hand-to-hand techniques and his Spectre-Flash, reducing the dinosaur-like kaiju to bones.
