Police Comics #87

In "The Horn of Plenty... of Trouble!", Manhunter Dan Richards answers a call that’s anything but routine—passing a glamorous party at Jim Dyce’s mansion, he hears screams and the unmistakable sound of violence. Rushing in as the masked vigilante, he finds the scene too perfect: the partygoers are frozen in shock, and Jim Dyce, the notorious prankster, stands accused. But in a world where appearances are weapons, even the most obvious clues might be illusions. With art by Alice Kirkpatrick on both pencils and inks, this 1949 mystery from Police Comics #87 unfolds with sharp, noir-tinged tension. The cover, by Jack Cole, captures the moment just before the storm breaks.
