☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "An Ocean of Gold!", the eccentric Proboscis Jones—master of scents and a man with a nose for fortune—finds himself transformed by the very air he breathes, slipping into wildly different personas depending on where he is. When his sudden shifts threaten to unravel his empire, the enigmatic Feathered Fury arrives to set things right. Written by Gardner Fox and brought to life with dynamic art by Joe Kubert, this 1946 Flash Comics classic blends whimsy and mystery in a story that’s as clever as it is unexpected. The cover, also by Joe Kubert, captures the moment with bold, expressive lines.
In "An Ocean of Gold!" from Flash Comics #70 (1946), the Flash races to protect the Three Dimwits when their absurd scheme to extract gold from seawater stumbles into danger—unearthing a hidden fortune and a dangerous criminal recently escaped from prison. With the sea itself turned into a trap of greed and peril, the speedster must outpace both the past and the present to keep the trio from being swallowed by their own folly.
In "The Man with the Amazing Nose," Jo, a perfume magnate with a nose so keen it borders on supernatural, finds himself unexpectedly changing personalities with every new scent he inhales—until the Feathered Fury arrives to set things right. Written by an unknown hand and illustrated by an unknown artist, this 1946 Flash Comics tale spins a whimsical, nose-tickling mystery where even the most familiar scent can unravel a man’s identity.
