In the Lightning story, the hero battles a green-faced villain whose buzzing death device targets victims; the villain escapes to Manhattan where Lightning pursues him to a rooftop confrontation. The Unknown Soldier story involves a plot centered on a refrigeration plant in Europe that the Nazis have seized, with the protagonist working to prevent the enemy from using a quick-freezing process as a weapon while protecting workers and thwarting the villain Moquette. In the Captain Courageous story, the hero discovers a supposedly gentle, tied-up beast that unexpectedly attacks a coffin during a funeral, leading to suspicion and investigation of the animal's true nature and intelligence.
Magno and his young partner Davey uncover a sinister operation run by the villain known as the Black Puma, who's forcing workers into slavery to manufacture doped cigarettes intended to sabotage America's armed forces. As the duo close in on the Puma's hidden base and his network of criminal schemes, they'll need all their magnetic powers to survive his deadly traps and stop his plan before it's too late.
When a green-skinned, web-footed menace known as The Toad launches a terror campaign from the shadows, he wields a sinister machine to silence dissent across the nation—turning free speech into a death sentence. With Lash Lightning standing as the lone defender of liberty, the battle for truth and freedom begins in a world where even a single word can be fatal.
When the Unknown Soldier discovers that the Icicle—a ruthless Nazi operative wielding a deadly freezing compound—has sabotaged a vital American refrigeration plant meant to supply occupied France, he must race to stop the villain before poisoned food reaches the French Resistance. As the Icicle executes a diabolical plan to eliminate both the plant's workers and the underground fighters who depend on Allied aid, the Unknown Soldier pursues his eerie adversary through construction sites and morgues in a desperate bid to foil a scheme that threatens to collapse the second front in Europe.
Captain Courageous answers a desperate call for help that sets him on the trail of a ruthless criminal mastermind—when a dying man presses a mysterious green skull into his hands before passing, the champion discovers a web of blackmail, suicide, and deception tangling the city's most prominent families. As the case deepens, our hero must uncover who truly controls the green skull and stop the murders piling up in its wake.
