In "Four Days before the Mast!", Robin takes a daring leap into the unknown after witnessing a murder in a diving suit, stowing away on a wooden schooner bound for mysterious waters. With Bill Finger’s sharp storytelling and Win Mortimer’s dynamic art bringing the high-seas mystery to life, this 1947 adventure unfolds aboard a vessel hiding secrets beneath its weathered planks—Nazi gold, a sunken ship, and a perilous race against time. The cover by Win Mortimer captures the tension perfectly, setting the stage for a classic wartime thriller.
