☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe main story "The Zombie," starring the Phantom Lady, involves a mysterious ship entering New Orleans harbor at midnight, leading to a covert operation where the Phantom Lady must investigate suspicious activity. A subplot involving military personnel deals with rocket sites in South America and urgent orders to form an umbrella over New York and apprehend anything suspicious, while a separate incident occurs where a woman named Sandra Knight becomes the Phantom Lady and must prevent a tragedy involving a runaway subway train. In Hollywood, a glamorous actress becomes entangled in a murder mystery connected to a red rain substance that brings death, prompting urgent communication across the country to Senator Knight about a menace requiring intervention by plane in the morning.
In "The World's Meanest Crook," the Phantom Lady takes on a ruthless operator named Foreclose who preys on the desperate by luring them into buying unaffordable property—only to ensure they default and lose everything to foreclosure. With her sharp instincts and unyielding sense of justice, she uncovers the scheme and sets out to expose the man behind the deceit.
Phantom Lady springs into action when a bizarre wave of murders sweeps the nation—each one preceded by an inexplicable shower of red rain that leaves victims without a mark. Racing to uncover the conspiracy behind the deadly phenomenon, she infiltrates a secret forest hideout where a criminal mastermind has devised a murder method so precise it eludes even autopsy detection. It's a race against time as Phantom Lady closes in on the truth behind the red rain before the next victim falls.
