☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeAn anthology issue featuring multiple stories, including a Dynamite tale in which a soldier stationed at a military base accidentally gets transferred to the Five-Eleven Infantry via a dimensional loop and must escape the chaos that ensues when he attempts to prove his identity to skeptical officers. Another story follows Punch O'Malley, a civilian who becomes involved with Gunboat Greenan and is signed up to fight the villain, leading to a romantic subplot with a woman named Angela before he falls ill and must recover while Greenan pursues the case. A third story concludes with three men returning from a jail break at a cave hideout, two of whom are recaptured, while the third—the Lindbergh Law violator—manages to escape due to a technical error that gave him a life sentence in Alcatraz instead of the proper sentence.
When a string of mysterious wrecks plagues a freight highway, Cal Martin and Doris Dalton transform into Rocketman and Rocketgirl to uncover the truth—and discover that the "haunted highway" is actually the work of criminals using knockout pills and murder to steal cigarette shipments for the black market. The daring duo must outmaneuver a ruthless crew led by the paroled crook Lou Stanza before more innocent drivers fall victim to this deadly scheme.
When a getaway car crashes near Johnny Jenkins during a payroll robbery, our hapless hero finds himself caught between a criminal and the cops—and between taking credit and staying out of the spotlight. As Johnny tangles with the crook Jug-head Brenner and an unexpected ally emerges, he stumbles into a job at the stockyards that promises reward but delivers chaos when a herd of wild steers stampedes through the streets. It's all in a day's work for Johnny On the Spot, where trouble has a way of finding him—or is he finding it?
