The Umbrella Men was about three crooks with umbrellas that could fly. The mini-strip picks up more than 45 years later, when they're released from prison. Cue age related jokes.

Lew posted about it five years ago, including a page from one of the original stories. It was originally by Charlie Grigg and ran from issue 1255 (11.12.1965) to 1290 (13.8.1966).
