| Notes | Although by-lined 'By John Celardo & Herm Bolstein' this is only faintly similar to previous strips and the presence of Celardo has to be taken on faith - if he's here at all. |

| Characters | Shark Brodie; Prof. Gustoff (villain, introduction); Basil (villain, introduction); Terry |
| Pencils | George Tuska |
| Inks | George Tuska |
| First Line | Come! Swallow this! It's better than a bullet... |
| Notes | This story appears to have been 'padded' to extend the page count. Two pages consist of four panels each that appear to be printed at twice the size of the rest of the story. Inks are not typical for Tuska. |

| First Line | This scrap was probably the most puzzling bout in ring history... |
| Notes | We have no reason NOT to believe that 'Jim Topps' is a real person. Keith Chandler : The Who's Who gives Jim Topps as a byline, with Fiction House sports fillers as the only credit. |

| Notes | The art in this story is collaged from previous episodes. Highly unlikely that Broder is still involved in such a travesty. |
