"The Star Pirates" follows Captain Dexter Ames of the Space-Ship Discoverer as he encounters three Inter-Planet patrol craft that turn out to be pirates from Neptune, forcing him to defend his vessel and its vital secret of Sun control. Another featured story involves Fero and Brenda, who escape a castle with a mysterious capsule that transforms Brenda into a child; after a battle against murderous space bats and the castle's forces, Fero defeats the king and returns Brenda to her normal size, solving an interplanetary crime case.
