    Cover by Lee Elias. Stories and art by Bob Powell, Howard Nostrand, Manny Stallman and Joe Certa. Former superhero comic Black Cat becomes a showcase for Harvey's unique brand of pre-Code horror. A scientist tries to convince future Earth of the folly of shooting convicted criminals into space. A prisoner gets a chance to escape his cruel captors, or so he thinks. A dark spoof of the movie High Noon, an experiment in the Mad-style humor that resulted in Harvey's short-lived comic Flip. Supreme Penalty; Low Noon; Torture; Regent 3! 36 pages, full color. Cover price $0.10.
