One half-crazy sideshow freak, "Clarence the Maniac Man," spurned by the lovely highwire dancer Lovelia, releases some dangerous animals. Captain Marvel fights and defeats assorted bulletproof sabretooth tigers, a prehistoric elephant, two giant horned crocosaurs, and kills the only gorillion (a hybrid gorilla-lion centaur) in the universe, then using the big circus tent, he bags all the alien animals, flies them out to sea, and drops them into a watery grave.
