In "Eloc, Master of Mischief," Professor Abelson convinces the bumbling Woozy to help him steal a Greek statue—only to awaken Eloc, a mischievous entity long thought destroyed. Written by Bill Woolfolk and brought to life with dynamic art by Jack Cole, this 1948 tale from Police Comics #77 blends classic pulp suspense with the eerie charm of a cursed relic, all rendered in Cole’s unmistakable style. The cover by Jack Cole captures the statue’s sinister presence with a haunting, detailed portrait.

In "Eloc, Master of Mischief," Professor Abelson convinces the hapless Woozy to join him in a daring museum heist, hoping to harness the power of a living Greek statue brought to life decades earlier. Once a source of chaos, the statue—Eloc—was ultimately destroyed, but now Abelson's reckless ambition threatens to awaken the ancient mischief once more.

When Honeybun decides to play matchmaker and invites the dashing Lord Dripley Fritt to dinner with her lonely mother-in-law, she sets in motion a scheme that's far more complicated than anyone bargained for. What Honeybun doesn't know is that Lord Fritt and his valet Parker aren't quite what they seem—and the evening takes a turn when their true intentions come to light. A humorous tale of mistaken identities and misguided good intentions that proves not everything glamorous is genuine.
