Black Cat Comics #22

Black Cat Comics #22 brings Harvey's masked heroine front and center in a tense cover scene by Lee Elias, where Linda Turner as the Black Cat confronts a gun-wielding countess mid-struggle while a male accomplice clutches a bag labeled "Orphan Fund" and urges his partner to flee — speech bubbles and all. The yellow-and-red design pops with period flair, and bonus features promise an exclusive illustrated interview with Joan Evans plus a Gregory Peck feature inside. With interior story "The Phony Crusade" written by Bob Haney and drawn by Lee Elias, this 1950 issue captures the Black Cat at her action-packed, socially conscious best.
