    Indicia title is "WASH TUBBS, No. 53." Cover art by Roy Crane. Untitled Wash Tubbs and Captain Easy stories, scripts and art by Roy Crane. Wash and Easy are sent by McKee Industries to the remote South Seas island of Hippa-Hula, to find out the secret of how the women there preserve their beauty. The ship makes its way to Hippa-Hula, where the mysterious Mr. Squeege demands they land at night. Wash and Easy try to find the secret of the island's women's beauty. After shooting Squeege, Ruby demands that Van Scamp get the Hippa-Hula beauty secret from his wife. Ruby gets the hotel proprietor to admit the beauty secret he sold them was a fake. Ruby and Van Scamp follow the disguised Wash and Easy before discovering they've been tricked. After being scared by a classmate, Fauntly Gilroy bets he can make any man in town run just as easily--even if the man is Captain Easy.
