In "Dr. Feher, Hypnotist of Crime," the Hourman and the Minute Men confront a sinister doctor who manipulates wealthy patients through hypnotism and telepathy, turning them into unwitting criminals. Written by Ken Fitch and brought to life with bold art by Bernard Baily—handling pencils, inks, and lettering—this 1941 adventure showcases a chilling blend of mind control and crime, all on a cover by Baily.
