Buster Brown #40

The issue contains multiple stories including one featuring girls guarded on the temple ground floor who devise a plan to use a vain guard's weakness to their advantage, exploiting his pride. Another story follows leopard queens and their king as they dine before worshippers, then involves encounters with a figure named Vishnu and a storage room meeting. A third narrative depicts a woman swimming who senses danger in the water and is pulled beneath the surface by what is revealed to be an octopus from the Black Lagoon, an encounter that killed her mother and now drives her son to seek revenge.
