All-New Short Story Comics #2

In "Murder on the High Seas," the Joy family’s long-delayed vacation takes an unexpected turn when Ollie volunteers for a two-week stint as a Civil Defense fire watcher—just as Judy insists they finally visit her mother and help with canning. Written and illustrated by Al Zere, this 1943 short story blends domestic tension with wartime atmosphere, all framed by the striking cover by Pierce Rice and Sam Glanzman.
