Synopsis
  • John Jones goes to Africa to hunt down Rod Mulloy, an escaped fugitive from America. He hooks up with a jungle guide, Dirk Johnson, to help him track Mulloy. But when danger from attacking animals befalls Jones twice, he secretly switches to his Martian form and deals with the threats. Then, returning to his John Jones identity, he deduces that “Johnson” is really Mulloy himself, arrests him, and has him reveal where the real Johnson is held captive.
  • A giant green alien is stranded on Earth and is duped into helping a gang of crooks, with Batman and Robin struggling to show him the error of his ways.
