Four Color #149

In the 1947 adventure tale "null," Jack Beaverduck returns from a business trip only to crash-land after dozing off mid-flight. He arrives home to find his new wife, Joy, quarantined with the measles—just as her mother sees an opportunity to have their marriage annulled.

In this 1947 adventure tale from Four Color #149, Downwind Jaxon finds himself inspired by Jack and Joy’s happiness—and suddenly eager to tie the knot. But with no clear choice in mind, he’s left torn between potential brides, each one presenting their own unique challenge.

In the storm-lashed skies of 1947, pilot Joy’s plane spirals out of control, forcing her to bail out over the ocean. When Jack and Downwind locate the wreckage, Jack returns home, burdened by the memory of his wife’s disappearance—though the sea has not yet given up its secrets.
