Big Town #16

Based on the TV and radio hit show, Big Town #16 from DC Comics delivers a sharp piece of 1952 urban crime drama with "The Crime Nobody Saw!" A uniformed beat cop cheerfully phones in his all-clear to the sergeant, completely oblivious to the bold daylight robbery unfolding right behind him — a man in a green suit is being held up amid a bustling crowd that's equally clueless. Cover pencils by Manny Stallman and inks by Bernard Sachs give the scene a wonderfully ironic energy, capturing that perfect mix of street-level comedy and crime-thriller tension that made this series such a treat.
