Written by Charles Biro and illustrated by Hi Mankin, this 1952 adventure blends wartime mystery with high-stakes treasure hunting, all rendered in the bold, energetic style of Lev Gleason's Boy Comics. The story’s cover, penciled and inked by Biro himself, captures the tension of the race to the wreck.
