Black Cobra #1

In "Ace Spy Smasher / The Voice of Treason," FBI agent Steve Drake, operating under his Black Cobra alias, races to uncover a mole within the Voice of America, where a Russian agent is using a double identity to transmit secrets. With his unnamed boss watching from the shadows and a trail of deception leading to a dead man posing as Adam Cleve, Drake must untangle a web of lies before the next broadcast.

When FBI agent Steve Drake takes a risky dose of Dr. Sykes’s experimental Formula Alpha to stay awake and stop a trio of crooks, he becomes the masked vigilante Black Cobra. With the formula’s power pushing his limits, he races to capture Joe and Louie before they can steal the secret serum—and deliver Dr. Sykes into the hands of those who would weaponize his invention.

In "Assignment: Manhunt! / Only the Vile Die Young!", the Black Cobra and the newly introduced Cobra Kid take up the trail of a killer who preys on women, leaving behind staged suicides that hide a gruesome truth. With the help of Steve Drake’s unnamed boss and a network of allies including the deckhand Webb, they race to uncover the real motive behind the murders—before the next victim falls.
