The Adventures of Bob Hope #18
In this 1952 adventure, Bob Hope takes a playful detour from his usual charm, pretending to be a savvy businessman and deep-sea fishing expert to impress a new acquaintance. Their outing on a casino ship just beyond the three-mile limit quickly turns into a high-stakes game of wits and nerve with a group of gamblers. Written by Cal Howard and illustrated by Owen Fitzgerald, with full art and inks by Fitzgerald, the cover by Fitzgerald captures the moment’s tension and flair.
