The issue presents "Baby-Face Killer," a crime story about Bobby Webb, a criminal who spreads terror and defiance of the law until authorities launch a determined manhunt to capture him. The narrative follows Webb's criminal activities, including threats and violence against women, before police use an undercover operation with a female decoy to apprehend him and his associates. A secondary story features criminal schemers Hale and Rance plotting murders for insurance money, specifically targeting a woman and her brother through sabotage at a mining cliff, though their plans ultimately fail when police close in on their operation.
