America's Best Comics #25
In "The Trail of Captain Blood," Bob’s quiet errand to buy flowers for Jean on her birthday takes a sharp turn when a chance encounter with gangsters at a greenhouse connects to a string of mysterious, locked-room murders. With Sheldon Moldoff handling both pencils and inks, the story unfolds with a noir edge, and Alex Schomburg’s cover captures the tension with a striking, shadowed image of a figure in a trench coat.
