Beauty And The Beast-Gang! The Panther Gang were cool cats out to make a killing in jewels! Dawn Hudson was a beauty contest winner -- as shy as she was pretty! Photographer Willie Farr was quick with his camera -- but slow in the romance department! And the Atom? Why, he's as dynamic and explosive as ever when all these different folks are tossed together.

Stowaway In A Hot-Air Balloon! A 'Time Pool' story!
Out of the Time Pool -- that circle of absolute whiteness which has the ability to break down the barriers of time and open a gateway into the past -- comes a strange bit of blazing matter!
To the Atom's shock and surprise he finds himself materializing around a hot air balloon. Once safely on the ground, he overhears two assassins, angry about the American Colonies gaining their independence, plotting to kill someone. Only then does The Atom realize that he is in 17th Century Paris, two weeks after September 3, 1783.
So it's up to The Atom to stop the murder of a a key figure in American history... Benjamin Franklin.
