It would be Criminal not to show your CRIME comics!

A newly arrived trio on display - I think I'm becoming addicted to these crime books...

Wow, who would sell the Church copy of that? I'd almost rather sell a kidney.

He got it (Church copy CDNP 42) from a Heritage auction, I believe.

WonderCon in a few days, see you there pal!

Good pickup!

The Secret Mysteries is an excellent read, the Fight Against Crime also very good.

I picked up a low grade FaC 15 last year and when I was organizing my purchases at the end of the year I couldn't find it. But I did at least read it. An above average crime read as I recall.

Story Comics was a no-holds-barred publisher for graphic crime and horror. FaC #6 is the best, or one of the best readers of the run.

Like it - a precursor to America's Most "Wanted".

Pretty much the whole run is great. Maybe because of all the gory horror content. I will have to pull out my #6 and check it out. As I remember, the later one got a little more grusome.

Some great covers in the run. We all know about #20 but here are a few more

Love the Femme Fatale covers!

A Dame, Dope and The Dollman. A little bondage for good measure... This is one freaky cover!

Here's a nice 'n bloody splash page from the second story in CDNP 57 (which I just happen to have available in the gold sales forum);

That's a great page, spanking and all!

That's wild. Reminds me a little of this one

The story in Exposed was clearly swiped from CDNP which used the killer's real name, and may have embellished the whole 'laughing killer" aspect of the story. I suppose it's all fair, as I have little doubt BIro had stacks of true detective style magazines that he pillaged regularly.

So brutal yes that is an incredible run!

Just picked this up! Killer title "painted in blood". Nice Michael Myers with a gun vibe.

A wonderful Maneely cover and a spectacular Don Heck rainy night noir story!
