Warlock

It is time for some black magic and plenty of rhythmic dancing. I thought I was watching The Jungle Book with Baloo the bear dancing to the beat.

Cathy Gale works for Natural History Museum it seems and is a bit of an expert at the occult. Steed consults her because a rocket scientist who has invented a new kind of propulsion has been laid low with something other worldly. He actually looks like a member of the rock band Kiss. However as they will not be formed until the 1970s, it seems something more sinister is at play.

Cosmo Gallion a treacherous Warlock has been hired by a foreign agent to steal the formula for the fuel. In fact Gallion coerces the comatose scientist to come to him as Steed leaves him unguarded.

It is all very campy and 1960s with lots of dancing in the coven. Gallion is rather sinister as he gives the foreign agent his just desserts. However The Avengers here look very much like a small raggedy outfit.
