    Stories and art by Dan Barry and Leonard Frank. The comics incarnation of a beloved radio hero, aviator "Red" Albright uses his inventions, including an early wingsuit, to fight evil as Captain Midnight.

Femme fatale Delicia woos and abducts Captain Midnight's dopey sidekick Sgt. Twilight, but Twilight maintains his cluelessness even while tied up in a bag.
