List of Marvel Family Enemies - Henry Pipe

Henry Pipe

A plumber who gets sick of fixing pipes and decides to rob a big lawn party after Mr. Randall hires him to fix a leak in the kitchen pipe using some pills. The next day at the party, he goes to fix the fountain, and when Freddy Freeman arrives late everybody is in a frozen sleep. He sees Pipe robbing them and transforms to Captain Marvel Jr., but Pipe throws a woamn into the fountain, and while Jr. stops her from drowning, as not even that wakes her, he escapes. After Jr. calls the hospital, a doctor describes the same thing happened to four people at a small lawn party, who were all robbed of their valuables. The next day Jr. sees Mrs. Charles Dunning is giving a big lawn party for charity on the third, which all society will attend. Jr. goes there and hears a man has come to check on her fountain, however she and the guests then go into a frozen sleep, and Jr. sniffs a faint misty vapour coming from the fountain. Jr. investigates the fountain and finds little pellets wedged inside the nozzle which emitted the vapour with the water. He takes up the same position as the other guests, and soon the crook appears wearing a gas mask. Jr. then reveals he is not asleep and knocks Pipe into the fountain. Pipe confesses and gives enough information for an antidote to be developed. He is then jailed.

    Pipe a song about a Lamb”;

    Sing thy songs of happy chear”;
    So I sung the same again
    While he wept with joy to hear.
