“Music Hath Charm”

In "Music Hath Charm," Jack Cole delivers a delightfully absurd twist on the crime genre, as the perpetually flustered Professor Grrr, frustrated by his inept henchman Wun Cloo’s botched murders, turns on his own lackey—only to be outmaneuvered by a bizarre turn of events. When Wun Cloo downs the mysterious Super Putty Juice and gains a malleable form, he takes on a surprising role: embodying the Professor’s conscience and steering him toward redemption. Jack Cole’s sharp storytelling and inventive art bring this quirky 1940s mystery to life, while Gill Fox’s cover captures the story’s zany energy with bold, expressive flair.

Professor Grrr, despondent over Wun Cloo's messing up five murders that he had planned, attempts to kill the detective.
