Black Cat Comics #2

Hollywood's glamorous detective star leaps off this 1946 Harvey cover in truly dazzling fashion — a bold close-up of Black Cat's smiling, masked face dominates the center while no fewer than nine action poses of her in that sleek black costume swirl dynamically all around her, making good on the cover's promise of "9 Lives — 9 Times the Thrills!" It's a wonderfully inventive design by Lee Elias and Joe Simon that captures the energy and confidence of one of comics' most distinctive heroines of the era. Inside, the story "Who Is the Black Cat?" hints at mystery to match all that acrobatic flair.
