A young and brilliant scientist, Michael Rourke (TERENCE KNOX), and his elite team of colleagues, place a specially-treated embryo into a specially-designed Gestation Tank. One year later, Rourke and the other team members 'deliver' a full grown human male: J.TYPE OMEGA ELEMENTAL. In short, Joe.
Joe (GARY KASPAR) is a true human male, twice human in every department, able to do just about everything except "leap buildings in a single bound". During the 365 days in his hi-tech 'womb', Joe was computer-fed centuries of information, but he is extremely naive in the 'ways of the real world.' MOBIUS, the shadowy group that funded the project, is not bothered by this fact at all and, wanting that perfect soldier, sets out to program Joe to kill on command.
Joe refuses , making MOBIUS consider him a 'failure 'which must be terminated . Not about to let that happen , Michael and Joe escape to the real world, where Michael becomes Joe mentor, friend and teacher. Colonel Fleming (WILLIAM LUCKING) offers them a deal, where the termination order will be disregarded if they work for his group fighting crime and evil, taking Joe and Michael into all kinds of high excitement situations.
