Letters credit from Todd Klein via his Klein Letters blog (19 September 2016, http://kleinletters.com/Blog/ira-schnapp-in-worlds-finest-comics-part-2/). Apparently, the stories with the villainous Mr. Peg were printed out of order, as the Boy Commandos don't recognize him here, but in his appearance in the story in Boy Commandos #22 (July-August 1947) he is referred to as "an old acquaintance." (Characters and note added by Kendall Smiley via the GCD Error Tracker.)

The Five Jewels of Doom!

"Some of the world's most precious objects have come down through time, stained with crime!"

Storyline

When a museum gems curator is fired, he seeks revenge on the museum directors by killing them using replicas of their birthstones.
