Atom [Ray Palmer]; unnamed secret agent; Professor Anton Kraft; Professor Loring; Jean Loring; enemy agents; FBI and CIA agents | A master spy assumes the identity of a scientist to get close to Professor Loring, who builds "super weapons".

The Atom attends a chess match with a platinum chess set and hides in a rook. The entire set is whisked up and away "invisibly". Greg Philips, feature writer for the Ivytown Herald, has gained "mind over matter" with pills invented by a deceased scientist. The Atom escapes a poison-fumed box, telephones to the crime in progress, and scotches Philips. But Jean still won't marry him! |
