“Samson Smith vs. Mighty Moose”

"Samson Smith vs. Mighty Moose" delivers a classic 1945 punch with a twisty mystery wrapped in a pulp-style chase, all drawn and written by Vernon Henkel in his signature dynamic style. The story kicks off with a seemingly simple errand gone wrong—Chic’s delivery of a silver bracelet leads to a frame-up and a frantic search for the truth—only to unravel into something far stranger. Jack Cole’s bold cover art captures the chaos perfectly, setting the tone for a tale where appearances are deceiving and the real power lies in the unexpected.

Chic writes a story on Big Joe Ryan and immediately is confronted by a lady wanting him to go to a certain jewelry store and pick up a silver bracelet, and upon delivery to her, he is to get a cool $500! But Ryan meets up with Chic and somehow the bracelet disappears before Carter can deliver it... and Carter is arrested for robbery. But Chic discovers that he has been played for a sucker with a phony, frozen mercury bracelet, and thus seeks out Ryan.
