Jewelry stores and banks in Astor City are targeted by a mysteriously cheerful villain and his gang of thieves, who turn around and share a portion of the proceeds with worthy charities. Is Dr. Skull what he appears to be - the World's Nicest Bad Guy - or is something more insidious at play? Myke Phoenix needs to find out before the gang strikes again and somebody gets hurt. Check out this third entry in Warren Bluhm's thrilling series of Myke Phoenix novelettes, which began with The Ancient Warrior and Web of the Atomic Duck - superhero action with a touch of whimsy!
