This issue contains two adventure stories. "Congo King" follows a hunter who encounters a python in the jungle, then becomes entangled with a woman named Sally Benson, an evil maiden, and a lion in a pit, culminating in Sally finishing Jo-Jo's life story a week later. The second story, "Jo-Jo," depicts Jo-Jo and a companion encountering an "evil maiden" and jungle boy while escaping by boat, with Jo-Jo ultimately helping police capture criminals; the tale concludes with the characters being commended for their efforts against evil forces. A third sequence involves a watchman, mummies, and Inspector Dixon investigating a mummy theft and attempted murder, with a man in disguise revealed as the culprit attempting to steal mummies under the guise of Ramzu's mummy.

When an ambitious journalist named Sally Benson tracks down Jo-Jo in the jungle to write his life story, she unwittingly sets off a chain of dangerous events—including a sabotage plot by a rival newspaperman named Joe Garson, who'll stop at nothing to beat her to the scoop. Jo-Jo and his mate Tanee must navigate treacherous traps, wild attacks, and assassination attempts while Jo-Jo decides whether helping tell his story to the world is worth the bloodshed it's bringing to his jungle home.
