In "Saturday Afternoon Frogman," Ernest Schroeder’s expressive art brings to life a tense showdown as the Green Peril plant, secretly seeded by Dr. Cosgrove’s assistant, spreads through the Wassau Swamp. The Heap, drawn by the unnatural struggle in the forest, moves in to confront the creeping menace—protecting both the scientist and the fragile ecosystem. Mike Suchorsky’s cover captures the eerie, overgrown tension of the moment, making this a standout entry in the Frogman series.

In "The Green Peril," the twisted growth of a monstrous plant begins to consume the woods near von Emmelman’s wrecked airplane, its tendrils spreading with unnatural hunger. When the Heap senses the unnatural struggle unfolding in the Wassau Swamp, he moves in—drawn not by danger, but by the desperate life still clinging within the forest’s grip. The battle between man and monster unfolds in the shadows, where survival is measured in seconds and the earth itself seems to rebel.
