    Cover by John Buscema. Stories and art by John Buscema, Mort Leav, Syd Shores, and Bill Woolfolk. 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. Ex-con Harry takes over the local gang as soon as he's released, in a violent early story (and cover) by future Marvel and Conan legend John Buscema. Five Death Row inmates make a desperate bid for freedom. The Great Unsolved Mysteries contest invites readers to ponder a murder in a diner with three suspects. Five Doors to Death!; Holiday of Horror!; Great Unsolved Mysteries; Wanted: Leonard Joseph Zalutsky; The Butcher. 36 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
