Stories and art by Leonard Frank and Herman Stackel. The comics incarnation of a beloved radio hero, aviator "Red" Albright uses his inventions, including an early wingsuit, to fight evil as Captain Midnight. Midnight's short-statured enemy The Flea returns, and this time he's got an army of Fleas with him.

Dr. Osmosis springs jewel thief Diamond Dan from his Death Row cell, so he can learn where Dan stashed a fortune in jewels. Plus a vintage Tootsie Roll ad for the Tootsie Roll propeller beanie hat.
