"The Black Condor: The Man Who Flies" depicts the hero battling a sunken U-boat; with aid from thousands of fish, he raises the vessel to the surface to prevent enemy forces from retrieving it. In "Alias the Spider," the Spider confronts a villain plotting to exploit a young heir and throw the girl into a dark pit, but rescues her and thwarts the criminal scheme. "The Clock" features the hero investigating a legend in Mu involving bearded Hindu men seeking bloodstones; Stanton battles the criminals and their leader, ultimately shooting them down as they attempt to escape.
When Jasper Crow orchestrates a scheme to force the sale of a mining company through murder, the Black Condor—in his civilian identity as Senator Tom Wright—infiltrates the villain's operation and uncovers a deadly plot to electrocute thousands of workers. Racing against time, the flying hero must stop both Crow's henchmen and the mysterious Ghost-Gun Killer, a sharpshooter armed with a lethal rifle rigged to trigger a catastrophic electrical trap.
A former naval captain and his flying torpedo craft find themselves pitted against the villainous Black Shark, who captures an admiral and demands a ransom of secret military maps. When the Red Torpedo agrees to a dangerous exchange on a remote island, unexpected allies converge on Cannibal Cay to turn the tables on the Shark and his crew.
Rock Braddon of the Space Legion infiltrates a gang of criminals at Jupiter's freight rocket port by posing as the mysterious stranger "Argo," only to discover that their leader Blackbeard—along with One-Arm Ganz, Patch-Eye Tork, Half-Face McGurk, and a girl—are planning to seize a shipment of ray guns as part of a larger scheme to control the entire port. When Blackbeard learns that Argo is a spy for the Space Legion, the confrontation reaches its climax at the docks, where the truth behind Braddon's infiltration and the outlaws' fate are finally revealed.
