Synopsis
  • D.J. Hammond, president of Dairyton Milk, has been wrecking milk trains and milk trucks, and blaming it on racketeers, planning all along to start selling fake milk as soon as all his competitors had been driven out of business. The Red Bee fights back, and his trained bee Michael leads a large swarm of bees to attack the gangsters. Hammond is exposed and arrested.
  • Neon returns to the United States amid a rash of kidnappings and sabotage perpetrated by the treacherous Dr. Marko, who works with Indians.
Notes
  • * Starting in this issue's Red Bee story, District Attorney Hawkes's hair is white; for the first 12 issues it was black . In all other respects he's still the same stuffy, pompous, bespectacled, mustachioed, middle-aged authority figure that he's always been. * Also appearing in this issue of Hit Comics were: ** Betty Bates: "Guilty", by Al Bryant ** Strange Twins: , by Jerry Iger & Alex Blum ** Bob and Swab: , by Klaus Nordling ** Lion Boy: , by Henry Kiefer ** Old Witch: , by George Appel ** Blaze Barton: , by Maurice Gutwirth *** This is the final appearance of Blaze Barton in Hit Comics. ** Don Glory: , by Arthur Peddy
