In "The School for Spies," Starr ventures into a seemingly ordinary house after her friend Jim vanishes, only to uncover a hidden network of criminals and a dangerous arsenal of radio-controlled atom bomb rockets poised to strike New York, Washington D.C., Chicago, and Detroit. A rare, fully illustrated story by Ogden Whitney, this issue showcases his distinctive art in both interior and cover work, capturing the eerie tension of a secret operation beneath a quiet facade.
