Synopsis for "Madman of Terror Mountain"
Professor Svengalie, a mad scientist, has created an army of gigantic robots in a bid to obtain world power. He sends his robots to destroy Keystone Bridge, leading the military to send forces to attack the robots. When their weapons prove ineffectual against the robots, the military calls in the Human Torch and Toro for assistance.
They clash with the robots but are unable to damage the machines with their flames. The Torch and Toro hold back and follow the robots back into their master's secret lab. There they try to capture Professor Svengalie, but are subdued with an electric shock that incapacitates them.
They are placed in a large glass bowl and left to suffocate. With quick thinking, the pair cause the bowl to topple and smash open over the professor's atom smasher. Using their flame powers to destroy the robots controls, the Torch and Toro attempt to capture Svengalie and his men. The professor douses Toro's flame with an alum bomb and attempts to kill the boy with an axe. A fireball from the Torch causes Svengalie to recoil, and fall backward into his own atom smasher, killing him and ending his threat.

Synopsis for "The Case of the Electric Killers"
The Sub-Mariner is in Florida with the daughter of Professor Ensen, a brilliant scientist who is among repatriated Americans returning home aboard a ship. As they wait, the Sub-Mariner hears screams from the beach below. Diving down onto the beach, Namor finds that those in the water have been killed by electrocution.
Swimming out to sea, Namor spots an American tanker being jolted with massive amounts of electricity and swims to its aid. The ship explodes before Namor can help, and the hero spots a Nazi bathysphere in the water. Boarding it he fights the Nazis on board who begin to fill the vessel with water and unleash electric eels to kill Namor. Both Nazis end up dying instead, and one tells Namor that he cannot stop their master, the so-called Master of Death.
Suspecting that they are targeting the passenger ship carrying Professor Ensen, Namor swims out to meet it and finds a Nazi sub that uses a light beam to send eels out to their targets. Boarding the sub, Namor attacks the Master of Death who knocks him out by dropping a steel beam on him. He then has Namor bound to it with a chain and dumped into the ocean.
Revitalized by the water, Namor breaks free and makes a return attack on the sub. Spotting Namor, the Master unleashes all his eels and trains the light beam on the Sub-Mariner. Outswimming the eels, Namor removes the light and shines it on the Nazi sub, sending the eels upon it. The resulting jolt of electricity destroys the sub, causing a massive explosion that kills all aboard. With the threat over, the ship carrying the professor safely lands ashore.

As they drive down the road they get into a place of a supposed traffic accident. They stop to see a young woman kidnapped. Jim goes off to find a gas station to report the crime they saw, leaving Madeline with the car. Madeline changes into Miss America and flies after the kidnappers. She spots the car pulling into a building and the men inside forcing a woman to follow them. Racing after the men and subduing one of them, Miss America flies up to the upper floor window with him. She spots two other Nazi spies trying to get a scientist to hand over his experimental floating torpedo by threatening his daughter. The scientist cracks and agrees to give it to them.
Miss America then smashes through the window, but during the fight she is pistol-whipped from behind and tied up. Taking the floating torpedo with them the Nazi spies flee the scene. Coming to, Miss America manages to free herself by breaking the binds and learns from the scientist the Nazis plan on blowing up the dam at the power plant.
Flying to the dam, Miss America easily subdues the Nazis and taking the torpedo tosses it into the water away from the dam where it explodes harmlessly. With the spies turned over to the authorities, Miss America flies off before she can be thanked.
