In Suspense #239, “The Swift Rise of Eddie Albright,” elevator operator Eddie dreams of success and romance, but a white lie to impress a manicurist snowballs into a deadly misadventure. When Eddie recognizes a fugitive gangster from his days running the penthouse car, he tries to play hero—only to find himself framed, stripped of his uniform, and mistaken for the very killer he sought to expose. A body in a carpet, a swapped jacket, and a last-second shootout form the twists in this fast-talking noir starring Phil Silvers in a rare dramatic role.
