In "The Fantastic Rainbow Raider," a mysterious figure known only as Mr. V manipulates Marco Xavier into feeding secrets to the Martian Manhunter—unaware that Xavier and the Manhunter are one and the same. As a seemingly minor crime unfolds, it becomes clear the real target is far bigger than anyone suspects. Written by Jack Miller and illustrated by Joe Certa, with a striking cover by Jim Mooney, this 1967 DC tale blends identity twists and clever misdirection in a classic House of Mystery mystery.
