Corinith Suspense Classic paperbacks in 1966 reprinted 5 of the stories
1.Black Lightning
2. Crimson Doom
3. Purple Tornado
4. The Telsa Raiders
5. Black Invaders vs Battle Birds (?)
Titles were
Black Lightning
Crimson Doom!
Purple Tornado
The Screaming Eye
The White Death
The Black Avenger
The Silver Typhoon
The Troposphere F-S
The Blue Cyclone
The Telsa Raiders
The Green Thunderbolt
The Red Destroyer
The Corinth BLACK INVADERS VS BATTLE BIRDS was a short story collection == apparently not only the lead novels but (some or all?) of the short stories in the pulp shared the same background premise, which was rather unusual.
HIGH ADVENTURE reprinted the first two novels in the series years ago, but never did any more, which disappointed me; I’d certainly rather see them do more AYRES and the rounds of rather boring (to me, anyway) PHANTOM DETECTIVE and KI-GOR and such.
Thanks Denny!
I have a copy of BLACK INVADERS VS BATTLE BIRDS, I just never knew where the stories came from.
I also have copies of :
Black Lightning
Crimson Doom!
Purple Tornado,
The Screaming Eye
The White Death
The Black Avenger
The Silver Typhoon
The Troposphere F-S
The Blue Cyclone
The Telsa Raiders
but only the Dusty Ayres stories none of the back up stories.
Thanks again for the info!

PS I would have rather seen Operator 5 and Dusty Ayres reprints over PHANTOM DETECTIVE and KI-GOR !
