Captain Midnight #58
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeCaptain Midnight faces off against a villainous enemy who has constructed a dangerous test tunnel and stolen an invention crucial to a fictional aviation company, requiring the hero to recover it with the help of his ally Icky. In a separate adventure titled "Pilot Pete," a pilot struggles to land his plane during foggy conditions and runs out of fuel while circling an airfield, eventually making an emergency landing. Captain Midnight later confronts the "Purple Men," evil creatures who have been brought back along with historical figures like Julius Caesar and George Washington, battling them as they attempt to retrieve a molecular projector and threaten his world with their destructive plans.
In "Captain Midnight's Test Tunnel," escaped criminals Shark and Gardo seize a chance to strike back at Captain Midnight—now revealed to be Captain Albright—by targeting the very invention that made the hero famous: the Test Tunnel. With the stakes rising and the clock ticking, the duo plans a deadly ambush inside the high-tech facility, turning the hero’s greatest creation into a trap.
In "The Planet of Peril!" from Captain Midnight #58 (1947), Captain Albright and his sidekick Icky journey into space, following in the footsteps of Columbus as they discover a mysterious new world. There, they encounter a green-skinned inventor and his strange creations—only to be ambushed by the sinister Purple Men, who unleash a wave of ancient villains using a powerful Molecular Projector. With danger mounting, the villains seize Captain Midnight’s ship and set course for Earth, intent on conquest. The story ends with Albright celebrated for his bravery, and the planet itself named in his honor.
