Smash Comics #29

Rookie Rankin, the young cop with a talent for squirming out of trouble, finds himself in a real jam when a stranger shoves a bag of diamonds into his hands—and a crook who's nearly his spitting image forces him at gunpoint to help pull off a heist. With quick thinking and a kid named Tim on his side, Rookie hatches a plan to turn the tables on the thieves, but first he'll have to convince Sergeant Burns he's not the wanted criminal Louie the Louse. It's a wild game of mistaken identity where Rookie banks on the one thing that might save him: the crooks' own resemblance to him.

Black X must fight through armed thugs and ether-filled corridors to stop the scheme before a fake diplomat spreads propaganda at a crucial state banquet.
