Spy-Hunters #7
Spy-Hunters #7 This issue contains multiple spy-themed stories. One story involves agents investigating a mysterious Antarctic tremor detected by seismograph at a university laboratory, which points to volcanic disturbance near Victoria Land—a discovery that draws the attention of the U.S. Government. Another story follows spy hunters uncovering a plot involving communist forces massing near the Pakistan-Turkey border, with agents at counterespionage headquarters discussing the strategic significance. A third story, titled "South American Smashup," concerns the purchase of a newspaper's printing stock by a mysterious buyer named Jose Vasco, who plans to use the transaction to acquire exclusive foreign correspondent stories while secretly operating as a black market operator and spy agent—a scheme the hunters work to expose and stop.
