“Buried Treasure”

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.

A group of outcasts in the Florida Everglades, led by a half-breed Creole from Louisiana named "The Bull", attacks a nearby town and kidnaps the daughter of a local fruit grower, holding her for ransom. The Twister hears of this, visits Barra and guarantees the return of his daughter, then sets out on the trail to find her. But the hero is captured when a gang member holds his hand over the Twister's mouth, not allowing him to suck up the wind. The Bull, after hearing of Barra not paying the ransom, sets a fire near the town, planning to incinerate it. The Twister escapes and rescues the girl.
