Synopsis for "Captain Marvel Has a Dull Day!"
Billy's been keeping track of the statistics of all of Captain Marvel's mighty deeds, and transforms to let the hero see exactly how many runaway trains he's saved, cannon shells he's caught, falling safes he's saved people from, etc., in the last month. However, this makes Captain Marvel feel bored about his heroic exploits, as he's done so many of all these harrowing deeds they've become routine. The hero decides to take Steamboat up on an offer to go do something exciting.
On the way, Captain Marvel saves a child from being hit by a truck, catches the projectile from a cannon fired at him by a murderous criminal, and holds a bridge together when Japanese spies bomb it, so a military convoy doesn't fall into the river below. All of which the hero deals with while hardly emoting. Finally the captain and Steamboat get to a shack out by a lake and go fishing.

Synopsis for "The Monster Society of Evil, Chapter 25: The End of Mr. Mind"
Mr. Mind's last two henchmen abandon him at a pier. Rather than give up, Mr. Mind tries to get off to a fresh start by killing Billy Batson all by himself.
He sneaks into the radio station building and manages to knock Billy unconscious with ether gas, but only then realizes he's just a tiny caterpillar and can't kill a giant human by himself. He tries to inch an electrical wire over to electrocute Billy, but the boy wakes up and changes to Captain Marvel. He calls in all the police in town but they don't find anything until Captain Marvel calls an exterminator instead, who flushes out the evil worm.
At Mr. Mind's trial, his own lawyer refuses to defend him. The jury don't even leave to deliberate before handing down a guilty verdict. Mr. Mind is sentenced to the electric chair. Later Billy Batson visits a museum where Mr. Mind's stuffed remains are put on display, the evil caterpillar's reign of terror finally over.
