"Dogtag" follows a printer at the U.S. Mint who attempts to impress his boss by taking home a printing machine over the weekend, only to have the device stolen by criminals; the story concludes with the protagonist recovering the machine and receiving a job offer. A second story features a cowboy-themed narrative in which two men compete for a woman's affection through a rodeo contest, with romantic complications and a comedic resolution involving a car and reconciliation.
In the kingdom of Krafora, a sinister figure known as Fate demands absolute obedience—and those who refuse mysteriously perish at a mere gesture. When the Blackhawks arrive to investigate, they uncover a strange conspiracy involving enchanted amulets and discover that Fate's power may not be as supernatural as the frightened locals believe. As Blackhawk infiltrates the mysterious stronghold hidden beneath the land, he finds himself face to face with the truth behind Fate's iron grip.
Two broke operators of Information, Ltd. land their first big job when a desperate client hires them to track down a legendary Indian hair restorer hidden out West, offering a hundred dollars upfront and a fortune upon delivery. The adventure takes them across the country to find the formula, but when they return triumphantly to their client, the magical cure proves to have a rather unexpected side effect. A comedic tale of enterprise, deception, and the dangers of making promises you can't keep.
