Cover by Mort Lawrence. Stories and art by Mort Leav, Rafael Astarita, Martin Thall and Mort Lawrence. Bloody pre-Code crime comics, in imitation of Crime Does Not Pay - including a top-hatted, otherworldly narrator.

An ex-soldier spends years plotting revenge on the man who swindled him out of treasure looted from a Buddhist temple. A phony psychic's wife conspires with her husband's accomplice to murder the medium...but then strange things start to happen. Death's Calling Card; Check Your Murder, Sir?; The Betrayers; The Mouthpiece; The Stooge; Wanted: John Wormly; Case of the Murdered Medium. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
