In "Mechanical Man," the clever but diminutive Professor Rudio lures Doll Man into a trap under the guise of scientific testing, only to reveal his real scheme: a powerful robot he's built to steal priceless artifacts from the Cosmopolitan Museum. With Dan Zolnerowich handling both pencils and inks, the story blends sci-fi intrigue and pulp adventure in a 1944 tale where size doesn't determine strength. Al Bryant's dynamic cover captures the clash between man and machine, setting the stage for a tense showdown.

Swing Sisson's night at the Clover Club takes a wild turn when Bonnie Baxter suddenly collapses during their performance—only to discover she's been drugged as part of an elaborate kidnapping scheme.

Perky

Perky lands in Merlin the Magician's castle after being flung through a magical vanishing box, and finds himself volunteering as kitchen boy to help the fussy wizard learn to enjoy simple, ordinary food. Paired with Lunkhead the cook, Perky sets out to cure Merlin of his obsession with impossibly magical meals—armed with nothing but a clever riddle, some ham, and potatoes. Watch as a picky eater gets a taste of something far more satisfying than all the eyebrow soufflés and cloud salads in the kingdom.
