Stories and art by Mort Leav, Rafael Astarita, Martin Thall, Bob Rogers, Bill Woolfolk and Mort Lawrence. Bloody pre-Code crime comics, in imitation of Crime Does Not Pay - including a top-hatted, otherworldly narrator. The twist is that the publisher offers wanted posters (and rewards) for real-life criminals. Real-life gangster Vannie Higgins double-crosses every hood he works with, but that leaves him with a lot of enemies who want him dead. A man with a history of family insanity suspects he is the serial killer the cops are seeking, but the truth is stranger still. Private eye Dan Dennis is hired by a woman who claims to be from another planet, but she's beautiful and the money is good, so he takes the case. The Devil to Pay; Wanted: Ira Lawrence Luther; Mania for Murder; The Kid from Brooklyn; Death Always Knocks Twice; Wanted: John J. DeVore; The Case of the Missing Prince. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
