In "The Adventure of the Human Streak," Hourman races to stop a mysterious threat when a U.S. submarine officer vanishes, uncovering a sinister plot led by the enigmatic Dr. Glisten. Using a strange glowing force to hypnotize victims into piloting private subs, Glisten sabotages shipping and frames enemy nations—leaving Hourman to unravel the truth before more lives are lost. Written by Ken Fitch and illustrated by Bernard Baily, with a striking cover by Nick Cardy, this 1973 DC classic delivers a pulse-pounding mystery from the golden age of comics.
