The second Charlton series to feature Dan Garrett, the Golden Age Blue Beetle, is also the first to contain original material.

An injured police officer needs an artificial heart to survive, in a story that predates the actual artificial heart by a decade or two. Plus fun facts about the duckbill platypus, a "fun" animal if there ever was one.
