In "The Crabmen of Paris," young Jacques confides in Airboy that thirty-five people—including high-ranking officials—have vanished over ten days, all linked by ties to the French Revolution. Airboy follows the trail to the city’s labyrinthine sewers, where he suspects the existence of the fabled Crabmen, a mysterious group rumored to haunt the underground. The story unfolds with a tense, historical mystery, drawn with bold, expressive lines by Ernest Schroeder, while Dan Zolnerowich’s cover captures the eerie atmosphere of the tale.
