Cover by Mort Leav. Stories and art by Mort Leav, Maurice Del Bourgo, and Mort Lawrence. 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. Bitter butcher Hal builds a big business out of his small-time protection racket. A passionate reporter (who looks a little like Clark Kent) gets deeply involved in covering a crime story. Private eye Skip Tracer (now just called The Tracer) investigates after a man is framed for murder by gangsters. Also featuring a vintage ad for "authentic replicas" of WWII Axis handguns. Business Man Bandit; Wanted: Joseph M. Dentico; Dawn Deadline; Wanted; No Escape; The Accusing Heartbeat; Wanted: Jackson Stringer; The Man Who Couldn't Kill. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
