Cover by Syd Shores. Stories and art by Harry Anderson, Mort Leav, Bob Rogers, Charles Miller, Syd Shores and Bill Woolfolk. 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. Brutish Martin gets a job as a carnival strongman, but no one knows he's a killer on the lam. "Crime Lab" detectives "Loot" and "Doc" investigate the murder of a symphony conductor. The Great Unsolved Mysteries contest invites readers to ponder a 1944 murder in Chicago. Goons With Guns!; Martin Main the Brute!; Wanted: Roy Franklin Murphy; This Way - To Death!; Great Unsolved Mysteries: Who Killed Adele Born Williams... And Why?; Wanted: Vernon McDonald Gill; Crime Lab: The Musical Murder; Danny Boy Sullivan's Gashouse Gang. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
