Fantasy Masterpieces #5

In "Captain America and the Ringmaster of Death," Steve and Bucky trade the battlefield for the big top, only to find the circus hides a far more dangerous act. When the Ringmaster of Death unleashes his Wheel of Death, it's not just a stunt—it's the first move in a plan to crush America under a steel vise, using mobsters as his enforcers.

In "The Gruesome Secret of the Dragon of Doom!" from Fantasy Masterpieces #5 (1966), Captain America and Bucky dive into a chilling mystery when the patrol boat Winfield vanishes without a trace—only to uncover a terrifying villain hiding within the colossal, living form of a sea serpent. With danger lurking beneath the waves and the fate of the crew hanging in the balance, the duo must unravel the serpent’s dark secrets before it strikes again.

In "Mister Gregory and the Ghost!", a self-made builder who cut corners at every turn finds his arrogance tested when he constructs his dream home from timber harvested from cursed trees. Haunted by an unseen presence that mocks his efforts, he wages a desperate, increasingly futile war against the spirit he refuses to acknowledge—until he discovers the house itself may be the source of the terror.

In "The Things from Dimension X!" from Fantasy Masterpieces #5 (1966), a scientist’s experiment opens a rift to the dimension Electra, unleashing alien beings driven by a thirst for conquest. When the creatures surge through the portal, the only defense comes from an unexpected source—the carved faces of Mt. Rushmore, suddenly awakened and moving with purpose.

In "Killers of the Bund," Captain America and Bucky confront a menacing Nazi Bund rally after a fellow German-American is brutalized for refusing to join. When Cap is captured, Bucky races to the city to rally the Sentinels of Liberty in a daring mission to free him and bring the extremists to justice.
