In "Buried Treasure," the Twister races against time to save the daughter of a Florida fruit grower kidnapped by a band of outcasts led by the mysterious half-breed Creole known as "The Bull." Written by Ray Gill and illustrated with bold, dynamic flair by Paul Gustavson—whose inks are joined by Bill Everett—this 1941 adventure unfolds in the sweltering Florida Everglades, where the hero is captured and nearly silenced before escaping to thwart a fiery disaster. The cover by Bob Davis captures the tension with a striking image of the Twister in motion, a 10-cent comic of thrilling action from the early days of superhero storytelling.

In "The Twister in the Everglades," the hero known only as the Twister answers a call from Barra, a Florida town threatened by a band of outcasts led by the half-breed Creole known as "The Bull." When the gang kidnaps the fruit grower’s daughter and demands ransom, the Twister vows to bring her back—only to be captured when a member silences him by holding his hand over his mouth, cutting off his power to summon the wind. With the town in danger and the fire set by The Bull spreading, the Twister must find a way to break free and save the girl before the flames consume everything.
