Synopsis
In Spirou in New York, the Italian
Fantasio
chokes on a bite of Lucky's Pizza, they become the finders of the golden key. Informed they simply have to travel to New York to collect their prize, The Mafia believe they are receiving a talisman to counteract their misfortune.
When they arrive in New York, they learn the true identity of their hosts and promptly leave without accepting any mafia money, but are unexpectedly attacked by members of the
yin-yang
, which is selected by Cortizone's Triad counterpart, "The Mandarin", who is the leader of the Chinese Triad and hides his deformed face with a hideous and grotesque mask.
Having levelled the balance of fortune, Cortizone and the Mandarin engage in a personal battle over briefcases containing money and a bomb, and following a deceptive swap of suitcases, the two rivals explode above the Hudson River.
Spirou and Fantasio later take the plane back to France, until they jump off the plane to see NYC's soccer games.
