Comics the Golden Age #4
In "The Menace of Madame Mystery," the Chameleon is framed for the theft of critical national defense plans, forcing him to use his uncanny ability to impersonate others to uncover the truth. Written by Douglas Allan and brought to life with bold, dynamic art by Bill Everett—pencils, inks, and letters all by the same hand—the story unfolds with sharp suspense and a twisty trail of deception. The striking cover by Alex Schomburg captures the mystery’s eerie allure, a 3.95 USD comic from 1984 that stands out in the Golden Age revival.
