In "When the Grey Gargoyle Strikes!", Harry’s newfound habit of smoking takes a backseat to a real-life emergency when he and his younger brother Derek spot a swimmer in distress off the coast. As Harry struggles through the water, it’s Derek—non-smoker and quick-thinking—who reaches the drowning man first, proving that health and instinct matter more than habit. A striking cover by Jack Kirby and Chic Stone captures the moment’s tension, while the story delivers a simple but memorable lesson in a classic 1967 IPC comic.
