In "The Munitions Men Murders," the Carson Circus sends Powers on a perilous mission to capture a saber tooth tiger in Africa, only to have the Trans-American Circus send Beale and his niece to beat him to it. Trapped by the mysterious Klombossi tribe, all three are condemned to be sacrificed to the beast—though Biff and Marcia manage to slip away. Jack Lehti’s dynamic art brings the jungle peril to life, while Kin Platt’s striking cover captures the tension of the hunt.
