The main story, "Robot Death Over Manhattan," stars the Skull Squad and Captain Wings as they battle a robot threat above New York City. The issue also includes "Wing Tips: The Flying Catfish," a technical feature describing the specifications and capabilities of a military aircraft. Additionally, a Jane Martin story depicts her involvement in a mission transporting wounded soldiers and uncovering a Nazi uprising plot, concluding that the incident represents a broader French resistance concern.
When a damaged enemy plane crashes at an American airbase in China, the Skull Squad discovers Japanese plans for a devastating trap aimed at their own squadron—but a resourceful group of hospitalized pilots commandeer an old, slow bomber to fly a desperate warning mission over enemy territory. With anti-aircraft guns and hidden fighters waiting to spring the ambush, Captain Wings and the others must fight their way through a coordinated onslaught to survive. It's a nail-biting scramble where courage and quick thinking become the only weapons that matter.
