    Cover by Charles Biro. Stories and art by Dick Rockwell, Carl Wessler, Hal Sherman, Fred Guardineer, and Charles Biro. A companion series to Crime Does Not Pay from the same publisher, slightly less violent and with more emphasis on police work. An imprisoned killer sets out to dig himself to freedom, but this is no Shawshank Redemption. A tiny jeweled stickpin is the only evidence the cops have to find a couple's killer. A comic that dares the reader to figure out the murder of a loan shark, in a whodunit with multiple clues and an upside-down panel for the answer. Also featuring a vintage ad for Lev Gleason Comics Picture Trading Cards. The Man Who Dug His Own Grave; Murder Plays No Favorites; The Walking Dead Man; Death Was His Only Witness; This'll Kill Ya; The Bullseye Murder Case. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
