Höken #45/1957

In "Fantomsabotören [del 1 av 2]", a struggling hermit named Jo faces a dilemma when he considers pawning his donkey, Matilda, to make ends meet. On the way to the pawnbroker, Matilda accidentally gets covered in flour, turning her into a startlingly white creature that catches the eye of a passing group of rascals. The story unfolds with quiet tension and whimsical danger, as a simple misfortune sets off a chain of events neither Jo nor Matilda could have predicted. Written and illustrated by the Iger Shop team, with a striking cover by Dick Dillin and Chuck Cuidera, this 1957 issue captures a moment of rural absurdity with a touch of suspense.
