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.

Cover by Jack Kamen. Stories and art by Jack Sparling. Reprints of the classic comic strip about the adventures of an amnesiac singer. Angles and Tex both want to know why Claire has dumped them as manager and boyfriend. A phony fortune teller may hold the answer. Meanwhile, Hairy Harry is being driven crazy by an unanswered riddle from Angles' fortune-telling scale. The opening splash panel of this pre-Code comic contains an image of a living room with a painting of nude models on the wall; while it is partially covered by conveniently placed furniture, it's still pretty risque for 1946. Bondage cover by future EC legend Jack Kamen. Final issue of the series. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
