In "Lois Lane -- Wanted!", a mysterious man named Matti Halliburton wakes up after an explosion with no memory—only a discarded Vigilante costume and a desperate need to uncover the truth. With the help of a disguised Greg and his partner Stuff, Halliburton takes up the mantle of the Vigilante, chasing down the criminals behind the attack, all while his true identity remains a mystery. Howard Sherman’s art brings the suspense to life, while Wayne Boring and Stan Kaye’s cover captures the high-stakes drama of a man caught between two lives.
