☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe issue contains two distinct stories. "Code of the Jungle! Mr. Flatfoot" follows a hunter named Thor who, while on safari in Africa, encounters a massive gorilla and saves a woman named Stella from danger; later that night, Thor foils an attempted kidnapping when criminals try to abduct Stella. The second story depicts a World War II naval encounter where Captain Prien commands a German submarine that sinks the British battleship Royal Oak in a harbor, with German sailors celebrating the successful attack while British sailors perish in the flames.
A professional hunter named Jim Thor takes on a lucrative safari with a wealthy American client named Milano and his wife Stella, but the whole arrangement feels wrong from the moment they meet in Dar-es-Salaam. When a wounded lion demands to be finished humanely according to the hunter's code, Thor ventures into the tall grass—only to face a test of survival far more brutal than he bargained for.
Frank Hodges, the New York Police Department's most decorated detective, refuses to carry a gun—relying instead on his wits, physical prowess, and sheer courage to take down criminals across the city. From his early days solving the "Matinee Burglaries" to his fearless solo arrests, Hodges builds an legendary record of successful pinches, each one a testament to his unconventional methods. But his stubborn refusal to pack a rod eventually puts him in harm's way during a routine errand that tests whether courage alone can overcome the brutal realities of street crime.
In 1954, a master spy recounts how years of dangerous intelligence work—disguised as a watch salesman across Europe, gathering secrets from harbor workers and children's chatter—culminated in the perfect moment: feeding Admiral Canaris the detailed maps and timing that would allow Captain Gunther Prien to achieve the impossible, penetrating the "impregnable" Scapa Flow to sink the British battleship Royal Oak. While the world celebrates Prien as a hero, Alfred Wehring knows the truth: he was the real architect of Germany's stunning naval victory, content to work in shadows while another man claims the glory.
This non-fiction piece traces the remarkable journey of horses in the American West, from their introduction by Spanish conquistadors in 1540 through their profound impact on Native American culture and warfare. You'll discover how wild herds transformed indigenous peoples into skilled horsemen and raiders, and how the horse—once a symbol of wealth and power—eventually became an everyday working animal on reservations. A fascinating look at how a single animal reshaped the frontier.
