    Cover by Jack Binder. Stories and art by Bill Parker, Ed Smalle, Rafael Astarita, Gus Ricca and Harry Anderson. Nickel Comics was an experiment by Fawcett - half as thick as their typical comics, costing half as much, and coming out twice as often. Bulletman investigates sabotage at the State Fair. Red Gaucho dares to enter the Domain of Don Bacco, in his final appearance before moving to Master Comics, with the rest of the Nickel Comics lineup. Captain Venture faces the Gonga Invaders, in a story with some groovy, otherworldly Basil Wolverton-style art by Rafael Astarita. Bulletman; White Rajah; Hot Ice; Jim Dolan; Captain Venture and the Planet Princess; Red Gaucho: The Domain of Don Bacco. Final issue of the series. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.05. Grade: GD+ 2.5 explanation of grade Condition: Used (collectible)
