Planet Comics #20 is an anthology featuring multiple science fiction adventure stories. "Flint Baker" battles nightmare monsters on the Exile Star, specifically winged man-eaters. "Gale Allen and the Girl Squadron" depicts Gale clamoring down a rope ladder to a strange craft while encountering a yellow-skinned creature and later confronting a star pirate named Red Comet, who pursues her with an anti-ray pistol and threatens her with a paralytic death trap before being struck by a paralto ray.
