During feudal times, a charge of murder leads to a duel, with art by Wally Wood. Action-packed cover by Wood. Betsy!; Trial by Arms!; Salty Speech; En Crapaudine!; Guynemer! NOTE: This issue was reprinted by East Coast Comics with a $1 cover a 1970's copyright date (see E.C. Classic Reprints #9). These and other changes make the reprint easy to distinguish from the original which has a 10-cent cover price and a 1950's publication date. 36 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
