Cover by John Buscema. Stories and art by John Buscema, Harry Anderson, and Bill Woolfolk. 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 man tries to steal a diamond from his boss, in an early story (and cover) by future Marvel and Conan legend John Buscema. After killing his neighbor and the neighbor's dog, a deranged man is haunted by the dog's ghost. The Great Unsolved Mysteries contest invites readers to ponder the case of a man who made a lot of enemies at a dance, just prior to his murder. Eyes of Vengeance!; Hot-Rod Killers; His Last Meal!; Great Unsolved Mysteries: The Case of William Grant; Wanted: Joseph F. Moore; The Dog That Cried Murder! 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
