"Shock Gibson" is the big double-length feature, in which Shock awakens in an underground cavern after smashing through a concrete block and pursues the Baron, who attempts to trap him with alligators before Shock falls into a pit. "Biff Bannion of the U.S. Marines" by Rem Brant follows, showing Biff receiving an assignment to give a patriotic talk about patriotism to rural schoolchildren. "Smokecarterb" (or similar title) by Joe C. Martin depicts two arsonists, Berg and Stein, planning to set fire to Mr. Rankin's cigar store to collect insurance money, with the story emphasizing how flames will seal the criminals' doom.
**"Here Comes Aunt Biff!"** When a pair of crooks take shelter in a schoolhouse and use the pupils as human shields against an approaching group of Marines, one woman decides she's had enough of their scheming. Biff Bannon crashes the scene with her own brand of no-nonsense justice, turning the tables on the bad guys in spectacular fashion. It's a wild confrontation that proves why this tough fighter is someone you definitely don't want to tangle with.
When arsonists Berg and Stein strong-arm store owner Mr. Rankin into an insurance fraud scheme, he rigs a hidden trap at his counter—and when Berg returns to force compliance, the confrontation turns deadly. Firefighter Smoke Carter arrives to extinguish the blaze and discovers the gruesome setup, setting him on the trail of the fleeing criminals through a trap-guarded hideout and a desperate struggle. This 1940 adventure by Joe E. Martin proves that sometimes the smartest trap is the one you set for yourself.
