- The Man Who Stole the Solar System! · 8 pages
Captain Ambers has been brought in to handle security at the "Project Flanders," a miniature version of the solar system equipped with the "Flanders Ray." Whatever the Flanders Ray does to the model of the universe happens to the universe itself. When Professor Renzell hijacks the lab, moves it to another location, and proceeds to blackmail the universe, Ambers disguises his ship as a comet and makes a one-man assault on Renzells' headquarters.
- The Crystal Ball Planet! · 8 pages
En route to Planet Z, Captain Quarles and his crew come upon a planet sized crystal ball, projecting images of the future. The Alien Sorcerer makes his appearance and warns that the visions could come true if Quarles' ship doesn't turn back. One by one the images come to life, until Quarles determines that the images are all illusions being projected by the Alien Sorcerer using rocks with telepathic qualities from Planet Z as part of an elaborate plan to keep others away from these stones.

- The Invasion of the Jewel-Men · 9 pages
Jewel Men land on Mars to steal selenite. Space Ranger confronts them at Mars Harbor, having some success with a sound beam that destroys a few. The Jewel Men threaten his ship and Myra, and escape in the confusion. Cryll was ineffective during the fight because of a coating of ammonia on the Jewel Men, which gives Space Ranger a clue to where they are hiding. The Jewel Men are using the selenite to create more Jewel Men, and their jewel machinery sucks Space Ranger in. Cryll saves the day by morphing into a Saturnian Vibro-Deer, whose vibrations destroy the jewel and the jewel men.
