A campy, high-energy tokusatsu adventure pitting a superhero and his ally against a militaristic organization and their absurdly designed mechanical monster.

The Iron Cross Army are sabotaging oil-tankers with the help of their monster, the Sea-Devil, a semi-mechanical anthropomorphic swordfish with an ability to shoot torpedoes from its mouth. Spiderman employs the help of the interpol agent Juzo Mamiya to help him stop the Iron Cross Army.
