Penciled and inked by Stan Asch, the story unfolds with a tight, suspenseful rhythm, while Ross Andru and Mike Esposito deliver a striking cover that captures the duo’s eerie charm. A 12-cent comic from 1963, this issue blends circus flair with a chilling twist.
In "Killers on the Bounce," circus performers Jake and Lil turn their acrobatic talents to crime, using innocent-looking rubber balls as deadly weapons—each laced with a gas that activates under light. As they exploit the trust of wealthy families, their high-stakes game of deception and theft unfolds in the shadow of the big top.
The Dunlap Gang plots an audacious series of bank robberies across the Northeast, recruiting the lock expert Mr. Evans to help them breach vault after vault—but when their meticulous tunneling operation is discovered at the Northampton Bank, Inspector O'Brien closes in on the whole crooked outfit. As the gang adapts their methods and strikes again, the police shadow their moves, leading to a final reckoning that will determine whether these master safe-crackers can stay one step ahead.
