The Spirit #18

"The Bucket of Blood" follows the Spirit as he investigates the mysterious Mr. Ides O'March, who remains unnaturally cold even on the hottest day of the year and commands an eerie little undertaker named Flatfoot. The Spirit's investigation leads him to Mort Magnum's establishment at the waterfront, where he uncovers a plot involving an international peanut cartel and a murder connected to Waroff. After a confrontation with Satin and James, the Spirit discovers that Satin is dead, having been killed during the criminal scheme.
