    Fox Feature Syndicate presents the first series featuring the original version of the Blue Beetle, which by this time was becoming one of the era's many crime comics. The Beetle investigates after a model disappears; The Beetle tells the true story of cop-killer Victor Gelson. Featuring the most lurid cover yet, by an unknown artist, one that was reproduced in Seduction of the Innocent. (Note the possibly erroneous missing bra-straps - visible in the woman's reflection - that make the cover even tawdrier.) The Vanishing Nude; House of a Thousand Corpses; The Deadly Three; Tropical Topics; True Crime Story: Victor Gelson, the Murdering Showoff. 36 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
