In "Perk's Vitamin Q Pills," Torchy is thrust into a bizarre publicity stunt when her friend Ed spots a newspaper ad seeking a spouse for the flamboyant Magnificent Manfred—winner of a contest sponsored by Perk's Vitamin Q Pills. With a staged wedding on the line, Torchy agrees to play along, only to uncover a surprising truth about the so-called "magnificent" man. Gill Fox's dynamic art brings the 1950s charm and comedic tension to life, with full pencils and inks by the artist on both the interior and cover.
