    Cover by Marvin Stein. Art by Marvin Stein and Mort Meskin. Pioneering crime comic Justice Traps the Guilty was produced by the studio of comics legends Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, creators of Captain America. A con man hires a killer as his new partner - but first he must get rid of the old partner. An elderly shut-in plans to kill his neighbor to get his spot by the window. A man becomes a vicious thug after his brother is killed by cops during a robbery. Art from this issue is featured in Dr. Fredric Wertham's 1954 anti-comics classic Seduction of the Innocent, illustration #14, with the caption, "Treating police contemptuously is a comic-book commonplace." The Swindler; Something to Kill for!; The Last Laugh; Closeups; Desert Justice; Cotton Clue; Two-Gun Crowley. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
