Police Comics #27 (1944)

In a lighthearted 1944 military mishap, Dewey accidentally drops a letter from his mother—drawn in pictograms—leading the General to treat it as a coded message. The General’s frantic translation reveals a surprisingly unflattering nickname, leaving the situation hilariously awkward.

In the wake of a chaotic birthday party, millionaire Martin L. Mirth escapes his past by swapping lives with a homeless man named Ben Bumb, hoping to vanish from a vengeful former associate. As the two adopt each other’s identities, their lives intertwine in unexpected ways—until a murder shakes the city and forces a desperate man to prove he’s not who he’s been pretending to be.
