    Cover by Johnny Craig. Stories by Gardner Fox. Art by Sheldon Moldoff and Johnny Craig. Numbering continues from International Crime Patrol (1948) #6. E.C.'s Pre-Trend crime title started as adventure, changed to grisly crime stories and eventually metamorphosed into straight-up horror. A criminal takes the name Trigger Hancock and starts a gang to rival Grimmler's band of international thieves who want to heist Fort Knox, but he's actually setting a trap. A stray kite is the clue that leads the Chessmen to the villainous Ventor, who launches death from above by rocket. Action girl Madelon is the only person who can stop mad Ventor from launching his destructive rocket from his ruined castle. Captain Crime!: The Field-Marshal of Murder!; Van Manhattan: Death By Rocket Bomb!; Chessmen: Slaughter From the Sky!; Madelon: The Rocket In the Ruins! 40 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
