Golden Age Origin:

Adventure Inc. are a duo who go anywhere and do anything adventurous, be it solving mysteries or dangerous exploration. The team is comprised of two non-powered swashbuckling adventurers, perpetually dark-clothed, dark-haired John Pierce, and his business partner perpetually light-clothed blonde Buck "Bud" White.

Buck has a nickname because part of the way through their first story the writer confuses Buck's name and calls him Bud for the rest of the tale.

Examples of foes fought by Operator 5 included the Thirteenth Darkness, The Atlantis (a flying fortress), The Yellow Scourge, Zaava, and the Black Menace. In addition to being a secret agent, he was a master of disguise, radio operator, chemist, and weaponry expert.
