'The Adventures of Jimmie Dale' - Jimmie Dale is a wealthy playboy by day, but at night he puts on a costume and becomes The Gray Seal, who enters businesses or homes and cracks safes, always leaving a diamond shaped, gray paper 'seal' behind to mark his conquest, but never taking anything and just doing it for 'the sheer deviltry of it'. But he gets caught by a mysterious woman he calls The Tocsin, and she blackmails him to help her in the war with certain crime organizations.
