“A Mind-Blowing Incident”

In "A Mind-Blowing Incident," two con men execute a high-stakes revenge scheme against a crime boss, channeling the slick deception of "The Sting" in a pitch-perfect parody. Written by Arnie Kogen and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Mort Drucker, the story unfolds with wit and flair, all rendered in a style that captures the era’s satirical edge. The cover, by Norman Mingo, perfectly encapsulates the tale’s mischievous tone.
