Synopsis
| - Rod and his friends escape from the gorilla men, and trap them in a cave.
- Jay Garrick dba the Flash goes up against a manufacturer who is forcing builders to buy his substandard building material. Flash makes use of his high-speed invisibility and tracks down the men behind the scheme, and forces confessions from them. He also makes sure that the construction workers use good materials in the buildings to prevent further accidents.
* Flash is "fifty times faster than a normal man" and can punch "at eight hundred miles an hour."
- Cliff Cornwall investigates the disappearance of a submarine, and discovers that it has been taken by Doctor Brine and his underwater pirates. Empowered by their unusual dietary regimen, these pirates can breathe underwater for up to an hour.
- A lengthy flashback to the 19th century, involving the original El Castigo , which sets up the premise that there’s a big buried treasure somewhere near Seguro: In the 19th century, ranchers Jim and Sairy Shiner search for the treasure left behind by a bandit that they nursed back to health. The couple is killed by highwayman Ike Coffey who also dies without discovering the gold.
- -- Almost a century later, the Shiners's descendant Elby, also a rancher, discovers a clue which leads him and his wife Carol to the treasure. In the town of Hondo a banker tries to extort it from them by kidnapping their son Pat, until the Whip corrects the situation.
- Professor Kitzoff has noticed a correlation between sunspot activity with wars and crime, and based on this scientific discovery, has invented a device that can control sunspots, and make people go crazy. It also harnesses the power of sunspots into a deadly heat ray, with which he shoots down an airliner. Soon “The Sunspot Wizard” makes his bid to terrorize the world, in an attempt to rule mankind. When science-dabbler Carter Hall learns of the increased sunspot activity, he packs up a Norman-style spiked mace, puts on his wings, and investigates the professor's lab, in which he evades at least one boobytrap. Though he destroys the sunspot device, Hawkman is shot and believed to be dead . The evil professor nails the Hawk up inside a crate, and prepares to move to South America, to build a new machine, and to take the body of Hawkman with him . Hawkman soon recovers and escapes, by flying his whole crate to a sawmill and running it thru a buzzsaw , and traces the professor to Lahojas in South America, where Kitzoff has constructed another device. Hawkman destroys the new machine, and throws his heavy mace right into the professor’s face. Kitzoff survives that, briefly, but soon is shot dead by his own men, by mistake.
* Hawkman has now killed at least twelve evildoers, mostly on purpose, and been bulletwounded twice.
- The Witch sails to the South Seas to steal the valuable Bloody Rubies from their owner aboard the S.S. Islandia. Once she has stolen the gems she hides out on a nearby island until she can meet with a fence who will sell them in the Far East. The King tracks the Witch to the island and disguises himself as Trader Torne, the fence. He and his infallible disguise outwits the Witch, for the fourth time; he gets the gems and strands her on the island empty-handed.
- Johnny Thunder receives theatre tickets from an unknown woman. He escorts Daisy Darling to the show hoping that he can impress her. Johnny's mysterious contact requests that he pay special attention to the stage magician Hoco. Johnny goes on stage during Hoco's act and discovers that the magician is robbing audience members, on stage, by swapping counterfeit money for real dollars. Johnny exposes the crook and impresses Daisy with his detective skills.
* Johnny's Thunderbolt manifests itself invisibly in this story making it appear as if Johnny's magic actually works on people around him, rather than his Thunderbolt. (Which in practical terms what’s the difference?)
