Synopsis: Superhero Pioneer saves a child who is nearly run over by members of gangster Braggy's mob, but the crooks escape. Braggy decides to move his racket into defense work. 2 years pass, and Pioneer discovers Braggy's gang is involved in large-scale government and business corruption. He poses as a would-be defense worker and refuses to pay off the crooks to get a job. They abduct him to make him an example of others, and when Pioneer has identified the "big shots" behind the scheme, he defeats them.

Notes: The features in this comic were produced by Ferstadt's comic shop; this story looks the most like Ferstadt's own work. In the first part of the story, Pioneer speaks with an exaggerated "old-time" accent: "Dat thar papoose--must rescue it first! Then I will attend the gun-toter!" However, after two years, he speaks perfect English at all times.
