    Cover by Al Ulmer. Stories and art by Al Ulmer and others. Fawcett presents a pre-Code crime comic based on the life and death of notorious 1930s bank robber Pretty Boy Floyd. His crime spree across the American Midwest elevates Floyd to folk-hero status and makes him Public Enemy #1. The Bureau of Investigation (later known as the FBI) and famed crimebuster Melvin Purvis set out to track him down. His dramatic finish only adds to Pretty Boy Floyd's legendary status. On the Spot: Part I: Apprenticeship In Crime; Part II: Public Enemy #1; Part III: The End of Pretty Boy Floyd. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
