Volume 2 - 1st printing. "March 1954 to January 1955!" Collects Mysteries (1953-1955) #6-11.

This one's a wacky entry and no denying, with Canadian publisher Superior Comics coming into the four-color horror ring all gloved up and swinging fit to punch the lights out of anybody who stood in their way.
