Synopsis for "Riders on the Sky"

Regarded as gods by the Incas, Skull and his friends hear the tale of the god Viracocha a.k.a. Captain Victor Cochran of the US Navy, who was marooned in the Bermuda Triangle in 1945 after being maimed in a plane crash. He has managed to pinpoint their location in Earth's history by charting the still joined continents, but before he can explain any further the Inca City is attacked by warriors from throughout time summoned by the traitorous Jaguar Priest, Villac Umu. Cochran is felled by a spear in the side and as Skull falls too, knocked out by an urn levitated by the priest, his friends are left at the mercy of Villac Umu's warriors...
