Rockets to the Moon
10 pp · superhero

A young inventor named Tom Addison unveils his latest creation to the Boys' Model Club—a revolutionary miniature rocket trailer designed to reach the moon—but when the notorious sky robber Bart Hawker overhears the news, he decides the model is worth a fortune and moves in to steal it. Captain Marvel springs into action to stop the theft, but Hawker proves craftier than he looks, forcing the World's Mightiest Mortal to make an impossible choice between catching a criminal and protecting the boy's precious invention.

The Storm
4 pp · humor; teen

When a major storm hits campus, Freshman Freddy sees a golden opportunity to earn a free pair of boots by helping at Sheldon's Campus Shoe Store during the expected rush—but his well-intentioned scheme quickly spirals into chaos when a customer's missing shoe gets lost among dozens of unmarked boot boxes. As Freddy desperately searches to set things right, he manages to turn a simple favor into a comedic disaster that leaves Mr. Sheldon furious and the store in complete disarray.

The Headless Horseman
7 pp · western-frontier

Golden Arrow faces the legend of the Headless Horseman—a mysterious highwayman robbing gold shipments around Dry Gulch—when a stagecoach driver's account is dismissed as fantasy. Setting a trap with a gold-laden coach, Golden Arrow catches a glimpse of the bizarre criminal and pursues the mystery to a carnival outside town, where he discovers the truth behind the supernatural ruse. What starts as a search for justice becomes a dangerous game of cat and mouse with someone willing to kill to protect their lucrative secret.

Some Cure!
1 pp · humor

Doc Sorebones treats Mr. Meeke for an inferiority complex with a cure that works a little too well—so well, in fact, that his patient ends up in police custody for his newfound confidence. A one-page humor tale that proves sometimes the remedy can be worse than the ailment.

The Strange Fight
7 pp · adventure

When Lance O'Casey's sea-faring partner Mike Bellew attempts to win prize money by fighting in a Savat exhibition—a brutal French combat sport that permits kicks as well as punches—he discovers he's wildly unprepared for what awaits him in the ring. As Mike faces the formidable Pierre Lavoisier masked and unbeknownst to Lance, he'll have to learn the brutal rules of Savat the hard way while his friend watches from the crowd, unaware of the danger his crewmate has walked into.

On the House
0.5 pp · humor

When a diner orders something light, waiter Wilbur serves up a plate of cottage cheese—complete with an unwelcome splinter—and delivers a perfectly timed comeback when the customer complains about the bargain-basement price. This half-page humor bit from 1950 proves that good service and good wisecracks don't always go together.

How to Hold Up Your Trousers
0.5 pp · humor
Croucher K. Conk
Peaceful Perkins
0.5 pp · humor; western-frontier

A would-be peacemaker named Jackson shows up in town with a black eye and a tall tale about his noble intentions—but his own account reveals why his plan to stop other fellas from fighting might not be his strong suit.

Food for Thought
4 pp · humor

When Algernon's appetite mysteriously vanishes, his mother Edna convinces his father Fred that the only cure is to set a good example by eating hearty meals himself—a plan that quickly spirals into exhausting, nonstop force-feeding. As Fred stuffs himself at breakfast, lunch, and dinner while Algernon barely nibbles, the frustrated father finally reaches his breaking point and flees in search of peace. This 1950 humor tale from Whiz Comics finds plenty of laughs in the escalating chaos of good intentions gone hilariously wrong.

The Monster and the Medium
9 pp · superhero

Prince Ibis suspects that the glamorous medium Vashnu is bilking the wealthy Mrs. Hamilton out of her fortune through fake séances, and he infiltrates one of the sessions to expose the fraud—only to have Vashnu turn the tables by stealing the Ibistick itself. Now armed with genuine magic, Vashnu lures Mrs. Hamilton back for a séance that will convince her to hand over her entire fortune, forcing Ibis to stop a swindler who can now summon real supernatural forces.
