Cover by Johnny Craig. Stories by Gardner Fox and others. Art by H. C. Kiefer, Ed Waldman and Ann Brewster. E.C.'s Pre-Trend crime title started as adventure, changed to grisly crime stories and eventually metamorphosed into straight-up horror. Country sleuth Ellis Parker is called in after a strange murder case stumps the local police. Modern-day pirate and supervillain The Octopus wages a crime spree on the high seas, but luckily, heroic Igor the Archer stands in his path. A handsome hoodlum has a way with the ladies and excels at both love and larceny, until he kisses one woman too many. The Deadly Grease Monkey; The Alibi; Igor the Archer: The Fable of the Flying Dutchman; The Ghost of Markham Manor; The Case of the Kissing Killer. 36 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
