Punch Comics #10

When a million dollars meant for starving Chinese children vanishes from a relief mission, the Young Americans Club spots an opportunity: an old sailor's treasure map could help them replace the stolen funds. What starts as a quest for pirate gold on an uncharted island turns into something far more urgent when the gang discovers exactly who's been hiding in that cave—and what they're really after.

Counterfeit checks flood Milwaukee in 1937, and detectives Roy and Connor must track down the forgers using fingerprint analysis and handwriting comparison. When their investigation leads to Arthur Wick, a veteran criminal, the case takes a dangerous turn—and science itself becomes the key to catching the gang, from fluorescent lamps that reveal tampered documents to meticulous license bureau records. This true-crime procedural shows how forensic detective work, not just luck, brings criminals to justice.
