In "The Hands of Sensitivo," Captain America and Bucky take on a criminal whose unusually sensitive hands allow him to hear conversations through walls—until a botched manicure leads to a deadly confrontation.

Written by Bill Finger and illustrated by Clem Weisbecker, with inks by Frank Borth, the story features a striking cover by Vince Alascia.

A criminal with large sensitive hands that can hear words spoken through walls is captured by Cap and Bucky when he strangles the girlfriend of one of his gunmen after she accidentally cuts one of his fingers during a manicure. Sensitivo shoots the man, but he wants revenge, so he tells Cap that Sensitivo only pulls jobs during daylight hours because he is unable to differentiate between objects with his hands in the dark. After dousing the lights, Cap and Bucky easily apprehend him.
