The Fightin' 5 faces two major threats in this issue. In the main story "The Eyes of Death," the team confronts an enemy leader named Lev who commands an Aztec cult and wields destructive eye-based weapons; when the Fightin' 5 refuses to be sacrificed, Lev threatens to fire missiles that will kill almost everyone on Earth except himself. A backup story titled "They Made a Man" chronicles how street orphan Billy Cleeve was recruited by the Army, trained into an elite soldier, and deployed to fight in Vietnam near the Viet Cong-controlled Junction area.

The Fightin' 5 are dispatched to infiltrate a communist sabotage school hidden deep in the Mexican Sierra Madre, where the master spy Lev trains Aztec warriors and international agents in destruction and terrorism. When a dying Aztec defector in Seattle reveals the operation and warns of an imminent "great plan," Hank Hennessy and his team must scale mountains, avoid detection, and navigate encounters with skilled Aztec fighters to reach the remote temple before Lev's deadly scheme unfolds. The journey tests every skill these freedom fighters possess—and brings them face-to-face with Lev's most formidable recruits, including the mysterious Princess Malaxatl.

The Space Warriors
1 pp · Science Fiction

Tomorrow's wars won't be fought by massive armies—they'll be won by elite space warriors equipped with cutting-edge gear like jet-powered capsules and sophisticated breathing apparatus. When three specialized astronauts are tasked with a crucial military objective in the cosmos, they discover that modern combat in space operates on an entirely different scale than the conflicts of the past.

Billy Cleeve

Scrawny Billy Cleeve trades the streets of South Philadelphia for military service, where the Army's rigorous training—culminating in elite Special Forces preparation—transforms him into a formidable soldier. Deployed to Vietnam as a nineteen-year-old PFC, Cleeve puts his hard-won skills to the test, coaching local forces and engaging in combat operations in the jungle. It's in those intense moments that the once-unassuming kid discovers what it truly means to be a man.

Daniel Boone

Daniel Boone's legend takes shape through his exploits during the French and Indian Wars and his daring ventures into the untamed wilderness of Kentucky, where his marksmanship and woodland skills earned him respect among soldiers and settlers alike. Drawn to the frontier life, Boone attempts to establish a settlement in Kentucky despite fierce resistance from Native Americans, facing capture and escape before finally constructing a fortified stockade that would grow into the town of Boonesboro. This account celebrates how Boone's courage and ingenuity opened the vast Kentucky wilderness to American settlement, cementing his place as one of the nation's greatest pioneers.
