Man Comics #28

In "Where Mummies Prowl!", Bob and his friends venture into the National Museum after hearing rumors of ghostly mummies and armored knights haunting the halls—only to uncover a clever ruse. As they investigate the eerie sightings, they stumble upon a hidden operation tied to a counterfeiting ring, with the phony $10 and $20 bills drawing attention from Lance Brant and the U.N. Meanwhile, the boys' curiosity leads them straight into the heart of the deception, setting the stage for an unexpected showdown.

In "Toying with Death," investigator Lance Brant follows a trail of suspicious toy orders that lead him into a deadly espionage scheme, where innocent-seeming toys conceal atomic-grade weapons. When a murdered inventor names a friend with a similar odd request, Lance digs deeper—uncovering a secret factory, a rogue scientist, and a femme fatale with a dangerous agenda.

In "The Crawling Things!" from Man Comics #28 (1953), a city reels from a string of bank robberies where victims die inexplicably—no wounds, just terror. When Lance Brant investigates, he’s drawn into a mystery that intersects with Bob and the Troubleshooters, who uncover a chilling secret: their classmate Roger Carstairs, a socially awkward genius, has evolved into a mutant whose mind can unleash visions of swarming insects, driving people to madness. As the gang confronts Roger’s twisted ambition, they face a foe whose power lies not in force, but in the mind’s deepest fears.
