| Synopsis | - From his hidden base underneath the Chanler Building, Feodor Grotoff runs many of the rackets on the Eastern Seaboard, and controls a number of corrupt politicians. He lures Rick Raleigh's boss, D.A. Hawkes into a trap, and sends an impersonator to replace him. The Red Bee investigates, rescues Hawkes, beats up a large number of thugs, and takes down Grotoff.
- Back in the Balkans, Neon prevents Shickler from invading the nation of Slovia and encourages its people to work towards establishing a democratic government.
* Otto Shickler was Neon's only recurring villain.

| Notes | - * The Red Bee:
** Some time between issue #7 and this issue's story, Rick Raleigh's boss, District Attorney Tom Darrow has been replaced by District Attorney Hawkes. The D.A. has appeared, at least briefly, in every story, but was not addressed or mentioned by name, in issues #s 8 ~ 11. His appearance and personality have not changed at all.
** Geography problem: In Hit Comics #10, the villain operated a high-seas piracy racket, hijacking cargoes bound for China and selling them to Japan. It would make sense to base such a racket in a West Coast City, such as , Oregon. This issue's villain claims to have dominion over all the politicians in the northeastern U.S. It would make less sense to center these operations on the West Coast, yet apparently he does so. Fortunately, he's out of business and under arrest by page 7 of this story.
