One story follows Colonel Rogers and his military operatives as they receive orders to apprehend enemy agents smuggling dope, leading them to a dock rendezvous where they board a ship and conduct a military operation on an island, ultimately succeeding in their objective. Another story depicts Satan-Sey and his captives soaring over the Himalayan mountains in a flying craft, where they encounter a misty green wall of force that they must penetrate; when signaled by Lin-Yan to activate the mist-wall control turret, the barrier trembles and parts, allowing Satan's ship to pass through and enter a mysterious futuristic city beyond.
In "Dragon Pass," the Phantom rides into the dusty frontier to warn a stagecoach carrying gold, knowing Blacky Mallon and his gang lie in wait at the treacherous pass. With the help of the Shriff, he sets a clever trap to outwit the outlaws—though the outcome of the showdown remains to be seen.
In "null," Seascout Tom Dawson boards an old schooner to investigate its mechanics, only to uncover a hidden cargo of contraband armaments. Trapped in the hold and set adrift, he uses Morse code to signal a passing steamship, setting off a chain of events that will bring the smuggling operation to a halt.
In "The Border War," Tom Campbell is thrust into the heart of a volatile conflict between Nakovia and Batamia when he's given command of Nakovia's tiny air force—just three planes—during a sudden war over a disputed border. After being shot down and imprisoned in enemy territory, he makes a daring escape under cover of night, setting his sights on a high-stakes mission to cripple the enemy's supply lines.
In "The Yellow Terror," scientist Dr. Eddy and his daughter Sunny face danger during their return from China, where Sunny is ambushed by shadowy agents. After escaping into the river, she discovers Brown, an American sent to retrieve Dr. Eddy’s formula, trapped in a boat—and together, they must outwit their pursuers before the harbor patrol can be summoned.
