Synopsis for "Ace of Ravens"

Reprint of the 5th story from
Hulk Comic (UK) #6
(originally printed as The Night Raven)
In attempting to save the Ace Diamond, a card sharp who was caught cheating in a card game, the Night Raven finds himself locked in Fat Freddie's Pool Hall with the irate gamblers that Ace attempted to rip off, and they are spoiling for a fight. Although he is outnumbered, Night Raven manages to get the uppe hand by turning off the lights. When the gamblers turn the lights back on, they see that the front door is open and are fooled into thinking that the Night Raven had fled outside. In reality, the masked vigilante managed to hide under a pool table and is now plotting out his next move.

At his home, Ace Diamond is counting his money, suddenly an envelope is slid under his door. Reading its contents, Ace learns that there is a poker game planned at Hotel Central. The compulsive gambler finds this opportunity too hard to pass up. However, this is all part of Night Raven's plot. Letters are also going out to all the people that Ace had cheated on over the years, all offering them an attempt to get revenge against Diamond.

When Ace arrives at the game he is horrified to see that all of gambling rivals are there and dead, all branded by Night Raven. The masked vigilante offers Ace a game of chance: If he wins at a game of cards, Ace will be allowed to go free with all the money, if he loses.. well... Night Raven tells him that they'll have to wait and see. When the Night Raven wins fir a hand of aces, Ace Diamond believes he has been cheated and reaches for his gun. The masked man is faster and reaches out, branding Ace as well. The Night Raven leaves behind his trademark note in the charnel house he has created.
