With the city's subway system overrun by criminals, it's up to him—and the persistent Betty Dean—to clear the tunnels before chaos spreads further. Written and illustrated by Bill Everett, this Golden Age tale blends aquatic heroism with early civil unrest, all framed by Alex Schomburg’s striking cover.
