This issue features two main stories. The first follows a spy ring operating out of a German underground station during World War II, where agents attempt to steal secret papers and plant a bomb on a train bound for Dayton. The second story depicts Sheena, Queen of the Jungle, defending her homeland against the bird-men of the "Land of Feathered Evil," culminating in her saying farewell to allies as she prepares for the next adventure. The issue also includes a patriotic "Memo for America" promoting the purchase of war bonds and stamps.
