Spy-Hunters #3 is an anthology featuring multiple espionage stories. "The Spy Whose Blood Boiled" follows Roy Carter, America's ace jet-plane designer, who is attacked by Frank Withers at a secret airfield. Withers reveals himself as a spy who has smuggled secret plans for a high-altitude jet bomber and plans to fly the plane to a Canadian base; Roy allows the theft as a trap to catch the spy, relying on the plane's autopilot to return it. The issue also includes "Jeopardy in the Jungle," in which a man defends his Philippine plantation against communist guerrillas attempting to destroy it and steal industrial equipment, while a woman offers to buy him out if he can quiet the troubles.

Jonathan Kent, a counterespionage agent, is tasked with tracking down two elusive Communist operatives, Konstantin and Tarnov, who've infiltrated the United States on a dangerous mission. When he discovers that a seemingly innocent freelance writer, Penny Crane, has been duped into helping the spies obtain classified photographs that could expose a secret military stockpile in Korea, Kent finds himself racing against the clock to stop them before they escape with the intelligence. With Penny as his only link to the operatives, Kent must use all his training to uncover the spies' next move and prevent a catastrophic security breach.

Professor Lawrence OsbornOliviaAntonov

Professor Lawrence Osborn, a mild-mannered bird expert, finds himself caught in a dangerous game of mistaken identity when communist agents intercept a phonograph record meant for him and mistake him for a high-ranking operative in their spy ring. Swept up in a whirlwind of espionage after a chance encounter goes sideways, Osborn ends up in possession of the Auditron—a stolen military device—and becomes the unwitting bait in a counterespionage operation. Now the professor must navigate the treacherous world of Cold War espionage, where one wrong move could expose him to both sides.

When a mysterious anesthetic gas threatens to plunge New York into an endless sleep, Secret Service Agent Donald Farr must race to recover Dr. Oppenheim's deadly creation—and the protective mask—before they fall into the hands of a ruthless fascist organization. With only two weeks to track down the stolen weapon and unmask those responsible, Farr infiltrates "America for Americans" to hunt down the conspirators behind the theft.
