This anthology issue features multiple stories, including "Flip Falcon," in which the hero receives a present from police and later goes to the roof with a woman named Adele while a villain named Lucifer attempts to escape from a beam-prison. "Space Smith" follows "Space" and Dianna returning to Earth from a trip to Red Planet when their ship malfunctions, leaving them moving backward and heading toward a crash landing. A third story involves Stardust deflecting the sun's rays and using new chemicals to combat a Martian invasion in which alien insects pollute Earth's water and meteorites laden with disease germs rain down on cities thrown into chaos.
