The stories

“The Sins of Anton Bock”

Professor Roberts has perfected a powerful gas, a gas too dangerous to sell or even use, so he decides to destroy it. Before he can do so, he is kidnapped from his lab. Later, Darrel and Martha track his movements to the waterfront, where there are strange lights of red, blue and green, as well as mysterious noises. Doll Man steps in to corner the crooks and save Professor Roberts.

“The Capture of Castle Balomar”

“The Three-Fingered Ogre”

Zero investigates the ghostly return of three brothers, who in their youth had made a pact: if one of them were to die, he must return in the form of an ogre, to care for the others. In adulthood, one of the brothers died, returned as an ogre, and killed a brother. Zero unearthed the body and drove a stake through its heart.

“The Medicine Man's Scheme”
