The Red Raven

    Into the maelstrom of crime and corruption that calls itself Civilization flies a powerful, mysterious champion known only as the Red Raven...He has dedicated his life and powers to the defense and preservation of decent society on Earth. This is his story...

    On a stormy night, a clipper ship winging its way across the treacherous Pacific is suddenly thrown off its course. Gripped in an unusual pressure pocket, the craft loses control and is at the mercy of the raging storm. Sensing the plight of the ill-fated ship, a mother offers up a prayer for the safety of her baby boy. Suddenly the ship is catapulted fiercely onto a mysterious floating island in the clouds and crashes to its doom! A morbidly curious group of birdmen, inhabitants of the strange celestial island, gather about the wreckage in hushed curiosity. A heart-rending cry from the baby boy pierces the deathly silence. The weird birdmen take the lone survivor of the disaster to their king's castle...

    Presenting the baby boy to the king, one of the birdmen speaks up:

    "The gods spared only this waif!"
    The king speaks: "He beholds us curiously. His premature mind cannot fathom the mysteries of evolution. He cannot construe that, as man came from apes, we were evolved from birds in this gravity-free island. He shall never grow up to destroy us! He must die!"
    One of the king's men shouts out, "Stop! I shall raise him to be the strongest and wisest human."
    "There is need for such a man in this wicked world," says the king.

    Guided wisely by the kindly king of the birdmen, the orphaned youth grows wiser and stronger with the passing years. The strange conditions that enabled the birds to outgrow the slow pace of usual evolution affects the king's human ward, for he has learned the secrets of the birds. On his twentieth birthday, the red-haired human is called before the king...

    "We have grown to love you. You have learned our secrets of happiness, peacefulness, and charity. The rapid stride of evolution has given you a far superior brain and body..." the King tells his beloved ward.
    "You are as brave as our bravest bird, the raven. I shall call you the Red Raven. With the aid of the wings we made you, you shall go back to your people and devote your life to eradicating the elements that make for unhappiness in their world. This is my wish!" the king finishes.
    "Your wish, oh regal father, is my command. I shall go back to my people. Unhappy is my departure!" replies the Red Raven.

    So, with his membranous wings the Red Raven leaves the sky island and returns to the realm of men to do battle with the evils of society!
