Cover by Johnny Craig. Stories by Bill Gaines and Al Feldstein. Art by Bernie Krigstein, Marie Severin, Jack Kamen, Joe Orlando, and Reed Crandall. EC's New Trend crime title featured top-notch art and writing, barrier-pushing graphics and pre-Code violence. A couple's intricate plot to have the mistress impersonate the murdered wife is undone by a game show, of all things. A banker who swindles a fortune from an old woman is betrayed by his own guilt. An attempt at murder-by-fire becomes suicide-by-spouse instead. Severed-head cover is one of the most infamous in comics history, mentioned during Gaines' testimony before the US Senate. In Each and Every Package; Monotony; Cinder Block; Sight Unseen. 36 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
