Synopsis: Mobsters kill old gangster leader before he
can confess to priest. Later Don's three brothers try to find
out who was behind killing. Rival mobster gang of course is on
the line.
Comment: Mostly good color artwork, spectaculous blood
burst on last page. Billy DuBay's story is nothing special and
the end is brilliant mostly because of Corben's artwork.
