Beautiful noir story, in black and white, completely disconnected from continuity.
Alicia Masters is a private investigator, married to Ben Grimm and with two beautiful children.
One day, the beautiful and fatal Susan Storm arrives at her office, seeking help in finding her missing fiancé.
Reed Richards was kidnapped from his laboratory, leaving no trace.
Alicia questions Susan's brother Johnny, who has gotten into trouble over gambling debts.
Alicia convinces him to confess and discovers that the person responsible for the kidnapping is Pete Petruski, aka Trapster.
They find Reed in a test tube, protected by a force field.
Trapster used a cosmic cube, but he wasn’t smart enough to control it and created that noir atmosphere.
Alicia finds the cube and undoes what happened, but loses her memory of the events.
