Code Duello 

Section G, the top-secret security unit of United Planets, had a special problem on their hands wit the situation on Firenze. And for that special problem, they gathered together the most unusual squad in Section G’s unusual history. It included:A research biologist who could bend steel bars like rubber bands.A middle-aged lady with total total recall.An interplanetary cowboy whose bullwhip was deadlier than a ray gun.A brazen young lady acrobat who looked like an eight-year-old kid.A mild young man who never lost a bet in his life.And the best pickpocket that ever lived.But Firenze with its CODE DUELLO was to prove a match for the lot of them!
