Cover by Jack Kamen. Stories and art by Jack Sparling. Reprints of the classic comic strip about the adventures of an amnesiac singer. Claire, Tex and Angles are kidnapped by The Raven, an arch-criminal who wants revenge after they foiled his last scheme. He kidnaps them to his remote island refuge, but not before one of his thugs gun-whips Angles' bride-to-be, Joy, as immortalized on the cover. The Raven plans to kill them as soon as he captures his last intended victim, Spike Marlin. The notorious pre-Code cover by future EC legend Jack Kamen was mentioned in Gershon Legman's Love and Death, the anti-comics classic from 1949 (similar to Seduction of the Innocent). 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
