The Doll Man arrives to help the injured florist, but soon finds himself unraveling a deadly mystery that may trace back to Crane's dark intentions and the plant's terrible secret.

Poison Ivy sets up shop at Herk U. Lees Gym with a pitch that transforms weaklings into strongmen—but when a customer tries to learn the secret, he discovers that the real strength behind Herk U. Lees's impossible feats might not be as straightforward as advertised. It's a tongue-in-cheek take on those classic "before and after" body-building ads that peppered Golden Age comics, played entirely for laughs.
