In "East Is East," a 1942 entry from Crack Comics #26, Butch finds himself caught in a surreal clash when the mysterious, disembodied Head assassinates the District Attorney. With the Head about to mark the Clock, Butch intervenes in a shocking twist, turning the tables in a moment that redefines the stakes. Written, drawn, and inked by George Brenner, the story unfolds with a strange, dreamlike intensity, while the cover by Gill Fox captures the eerie, otherworldly tone of the tale.
