Written by Joe Blair and illustrated by Ed Smalle, this tense wartime tale blends espionage and urgency, with Charles Biro’s striking cover capturing the story’s high-stakes atmosphere.
In a 1941 tale of suspense, a mysterious widow’s subscription to a magazine becomes a key clue in a deadly mystery when two masked men raid the Bradley Shoe Company’s payroll office. With Mr. Muldom dead and his wife, Mrs. Muldom, drawn into the web of intrigue, a shadowy figure known only as Mori and his gang vanish into the night—leaving behind a trail of secrets and a manhunt that’s just beginning.
When Helen warns that a German invasion force is secretly stationed on Howe Island, her claims are dismissed by Intelligence—until Tim Shane and his brother Tom, both pilots, take it upon themselves to investigate. With the help of guest-star Kermit and a growing threat from the mysterious villain Ware, the brothers must prove that the enemy is closer than anyone thought.
