The Story of the Four Chaplains
4 pp · non-fiction; religious

In February 1943, the troop transport SS Dorchester is struck by a German torpedo in the Atlantic, and as the ship begins to sink, four chaplains—Parson George L. Fox, Parson Clark V. Poling, Father John P. Washington, and Rabbi Alexander D. Goode—move through the chaos to comfort the panicked soldiers and ensure men reach the lifeboats. These men of different faiths work together to calm fears and give what aid they can, embodying the brotherhood they preached even as disaster unfolds around them.

The Fires of Kilauea
4 pp · adventure; non-fiction

In 1952, Stamp Comics presents "The Fires of Kilauea," a tale of courage set two hundred years ago in Hawaii, where a lost stranger arrives at a village near Mt. Kilauea—only to be accused of bringing the goddess Pe-Le's wrath by climbing the sacred mountain and eating forbidden berries. When the volcano erupts and the villagers demand the girl's life as sacrifice, Princess Kapiolani steps in with an act of defiance that will test whether superstition or reason holds true power over her people.

Admiral Richard E. Byrd and the South Pole Expedition
4 pp · adventure; non-fiction

Admiral Richard E. Byrd leads an ambitious Antarctic expedition to the South Pole, establishing a base at Little America and preparing for the treacherous final push across ice, mountains, and brutal conditions. With careful planning, supply depots, and aircraft strategically positioned, Byrd and his team face the unforgiving landscape—including a dramatic rescue during an avalanche—as they prepare for their historic flight to the bottom of the world.

Fulton's Folly
4 pp · adventure; non-fiction

Robert Fulton dreamed of harnessing steam power to revolutionize transportation, but his early trials in France ended in disaster—leaving Napoleon himself unconvinced. Undeterred, Fulton took his vision to New York and built the Clermont, facing a jeering crowd convinced his invention was folly as he prepared for his 1807 maiden voyage up the Hudson River. This is the story of how one inventor's persistence transformed mockery into vindication, and changed the world forever.

Hercules and the Monsters
4 pp · fantasy

Hercules undertakes his tenth labor for King Eurystheus—journeying to the island of Gades to capture the cattle herds guarded by Geryon, a fearsome three-bodied monster. Along the way, the legendary strongman must overcome Geryon's herdsmen, a two-headed watchdog, and the monster himself, but his trials are far from over when a fire-breathing giant threatens to steal the herd during his journey home.

Remember The Alamo
3 pp · adventure; non-fiction

In 1836, a determined band of Texans fortifies the Alamo as Mexican forces under Santa Anna close in, and Davy Crockett returns from a failed plea for reinforcements to join Jim Bowie and the garrison in their stand. As the defenders' situation grows dire—Bowie fallen ill and commander Travis weakened by fever—the men choose to stay and fight to the last rather than abandon their cause. This story commemorates the heroic defense that became a rallying cry for Texas independence, honored a century later with a postage stamp in 1952.

What's My Name?
2 pp · non-fiction

A German-born military officer recounts his remarkable life—from fighting in the American Civil War with a war balloon to becoming a pioneering aeronautical visionary—as he reveals the story behind his revolutionary airship designs that changed aviation forever. This 1952 non-fiction story traces his journey from skeptical beginnings to vindication, exploring how mathematical precision and unwavering belief transformed an impossible dream into reality. Can you guess the identity of the man who became known as the father of the dirigible?
