Indexer Notes
Edmond Good is credited on this feature by Jerry Bails' Who's Who, also by an art sample by these two artists. Same art as here. The heads with a kink in the neck, and grinning in sideview are very like the art of some Lance O'Casey stories and original art credited to him in Whiz Comics #134 and #136.

- adventure; spy
- Characters
- T-Man Pete Trask; Captain Carse; Vorov (Russian agent)
- Synopsis
- A Russian submarine with a secret rocket launcher surfaces right under the bow of a South Pacific cruise ship and sinks in shallow waters.
Indexer Notes
Round eyes with short lines in the outer corners are very typical Anderson, so probably his work.

T-Man / comic story / 7 pages
- Genre
- spy
- Characters
- T-Man Pete Trask; Mac Laird; Vito Fiore; Gus (villain); Hilda Beausac (villain)

Indexer Notes
The art has some resemblance to Steinberg's credited "Lucky Mistake" story in Hopalong Cassidy #16. Especially leg movements and many views from angles not showing faces.
