“The Jinx”

In "The Jinx," a mysterious bird egg recovered by Salty sets off a peculiar chain of events when the Professor declares the species extinct—yet the egg refuses to accept that verdict. Written, drawn, and inked by Bernard Dibble, this 1946 Quality Comics tale blends whimsy and wonder in a story where even the past can’t stop something new from hatching. The cover by Al Bryant captures the moment with a touch of old-school charm.
