The story depicts Bill Norris working on a thesis as the old Folmar house catches fire, with armed men attempting to reach the building's owner and a mysterious figure emerging from the flames. In another sequence, a blue-suited hero seizes a Japanese gun during combat, then travels to a futuristic setting where he encounters aliens and awakens in what appears to be an underground dungeon, discovering he is trapped in one of Futuria's ancient tyrant prisons.
When a mysterious deep freeze begins gripping Earth, Wonderman realizes the handiwork of his old enemies—Dr. Voodoo and the Immortal Emperor, plotting with the villainous Lilith from her icy domain on Pluto. As temperatures plummet and civilization teeters on the brink of collapse, the stage is set for a desperate confrontation between Wonderman and the sinister trio's latest scheme for conquest.
When Jill Trent's newest invention—an element-detector that identifies chemical composition—reveals that a bargain antique ring is fake, the science sleuth and her friend Daisy stumble onto something far more serious: the murder of wealthy jewelry collector Mrs. Eleanor Van Doran. As police arrest a suspicious suspect, Jill's instincts tell her something doesn't add up, and she sets out to prove the real killer is still at large. Using her scientific gadget and sharp detective work, Jill races to uncover the truth before the actual murderer strikes again.
When an elderly inventor suffers a series of devastating "accidents" that leave him crippled and grieving, Bill Norris—the Grim Reaper—suspects foul play and infiltrates a mysterious island facility to uncover the truth. As he navigates guarded grounds and dangerous confrontations, he discovers a cruel conspiracy of theft and deception that threatens to destroy what little remains of an old man's life. Can the masked avenger dismantle the scheme and restore what was lost?
In the thirtieth century, Chairman Dick Devens of the Supreme Futurian Council returns to report on peaceful Futuria—but a Japanese scientist, Dr. Hakura, sees an opportunity to conquer this utopian world and uses the time machine to travel forward with his men, leaving Devens trapped a thousand years in his own future. Now Devens must navigate a bewildering maze of imposters and false accusations to expose Hakura's treachery before the peaceful people of tomorrow fall under tyranny.
