Wings Comics #42 is an anthology featuring multiple aviation-themed stories. The Skull Squad springs an elaborate trap involving "Panzer Meat for Mosquitoes," using yellow aircraft to attack enemy ground forces including tanks and vehicles. Suicide Smith and the Air Commandos features Agent X-35 discovering a key that was controlling a terminal, with the commandos working to intercept enemy operations at a Finnish inlet serving as a Nazi submarine base. A third story involves Lura, a female character caught between rival factions, as she performs at an opera while interference runs between two competing groups, with one side attempting to secure an exit through music.

Major Ralph Cheli sits behind a desk at an operational base in New Guinea, champing at the bit for real combat instead of paperwork—until he volunteers to lead a dangerous bombing raid on Dagua airfield. When Japanese fighters swarm the formation and his plane catches fire, Ralph makes the agonizing choice to keep his squadron on target rather than break formation to save himself, determined to give his son something to be proud of.
