Cover by Myron Fass. Stories and art by Robert Leslie Bellem, Tony Tallarico, Ray McClelland, Pierre Charpentier, John C. Mitchell, Bill Fraccio, William Grew and H. C. Kiefer. Despite the title, not true "crime" comics, but mystery comics featuring detective heroes. The ol' "injury-to-the-eye motif" returns, as Dan Turner seeks a killer who fires poison darts into his female victims' eyes! This story also features a deadly Punch & Judy show, hilarious Dan Turner tough-guy dialogue, and a villainous puppet-master who resembles Marvel's Puppet Master. Gail Ford goes undercover at a costume party to catch a wealthy man's killer, in a story with plentiful action-girl art. Sally the Sleuth and "The Chief" are mystified when an executed killer seemingly returns from the dead...for revenge. Gail Ford, Girl Friday; Ray Hale: Murder at First Base; Sally the Sleuth: Back From the Dead; Steve Wilder: Stuck With Murder; Dan Turner Hollywood Detective: The Poisoned Puppet. Final issue under this title; series continues as Crime Mysteries (1952-1954 Trojan Magazines) #7, while the numbering continues with Secret Mysteries (1954) #16. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
