Yankee Comics #1 is an anthology featuring the patriotic hero Yankee Doodle Jones as the main character. In one story, Yankee Doodle Jones pursues military criminals who have stolen supplies from a fort, tracking them through a valley hideout where he engages in combat with the thieves and a mysterious black-cloaked figure. In another story, masked heroes pursue criminals through city streets and confront a gang in their headquarters, ultimately capturing the villains with the aid of a lightning-powered car piloted by characters named Nemo and Impy, while battling the criminal organization to recover stolen goods.

When three military officers are found strangled under mysterious circumstances, Yankee Doodle Jones and Dandy are called into action by Uncle Sam himself to solve the case. Their investigation leads them to a sinister barber shop, where a malevolent witch uses stolen hair as a weapon to strangle her victims from afar—and Yankee Doodle soon finds himself in her deadly grasp. With Dandy's quick thinking and their combined heroic spirit, the young duo must stop the witch and her shadowy master before more lives are lost.
