Cover by Mort Lawrence. Stories and art by John Buscema, John Forte, Mort Leav, Bill Woolfolk, Bob Rogers, and Syd Shores. Bloody pre-Code crime comics, in imitation of Crime Does Not Pay - including a top-hatted, otherworldly narrator. The twist is that the publisher offers wanted posters (and rewards) for real-life criminals. A veteran with PTSD is haunted by delusions of murder, in an early story by future Marvel and Conan legend John Buscema. In a feature that invites readers to solve the crime for themselves, a man murders his brother for an inheritance. "Crime Lab" detectives "Loot" and "Doc" investigate a cold case after a skeleton is unearthed at a construction site. Citadel of Crime; Wanted: Earl David Bircham; Web of Crime!; He Died Alone; He's the Killer!; You're the Detective!: The Case of the Bereaved Brother!; Wanted: George Leonard Washington Hall; Crime Lab: The Case of the Kayoed Corpse! 48 pages, Full Color.
