Prize Comics #21 is an anthology issue featuring multiple stories. One story follows Doctor Frost, who uses his freezing powers to extinguish a time bomb destroying a building and save firemen from the flames, ultimately defeating the villain responsible for Colonel Tate's murder. Another story depicts a character in a red costume investigating an air raid shelter during wartime, discovering a truck loaded with explosives intended to cause panic. A third story, "Don't Draw Any Concussions" by Crest Wood, follows Bill Luban, a confident driver whose speeding results in hospitalization; a doctor informs him he has a blood clot in his brain that may prove fatal within a month, prompting Bill to reconsider his reckless lifestyle.
