Bloody pre-Code crime comics, in imitation of Crime Does Not Pay - including a top-hatted, otherworldly narrator.

The Great Unsolved Mysteries contest invites readers to ponder the disappearance of socialite and heiress Dorothy Arnold. "Crime Lab" detectives "Loot" and "Doc" suspect a gangland enforcer was murdered to provide a cover for his boss.
