In "Devils of the Deep," the Shield and his ally Dusty track a fugitive spy to Coney Island, only to uncover a Nazi submarine beneath the boardwalk.

In "Merchants of Murder," the Wizard must unravel a deadly mystery when a parrot becomes a Nazi spy's unexpected courier, leading him to investigate a suspicious munitions company operating under the radar.
