In "The Clown and Zora," Principal Blake—secretly the masked hero Buckskin—investigates a strange wave of truancy among three boys, uncovering a scheme that’s pulling them into something far more dangerous than skipping class. Written by Robert Turner and illustrated with crisp, dynamic energy by Harry Anderson, this 1941 mystery from Ace Magazines blends schoolyard intrigue with early superhero suspense, all framed by Jim Mooney’s striking cover.
