THE SECRET CODE
15 CHAPTER SERIAL
1942

GREATEST SPY ACTION SERIAL OF ALL TIME!
PLOT:
A superhero known as The Black Commando battles to prevent Nazi agents from stealing a secret formula. Led by fifth columnist Rudy Thyssen, the spy ring is trying to get possession of a top-secret formula for manufacturing synthetic rubber.

Made during WW II, all the German-born actors, or actors with German-sounding names, changed their names for, (to use a WW II expression) "the duration." Here Rudolph Anders chose to be billed as Robert O. Davis and Ludwig Donath opted for Louis Donath, even though they, and most of the other name-change actors of the day, always ended up playing Nazis anyway!
