Dead End Crime Stories #nn

"Crime Is the Game of Fools; Death Is the Scorekeeper!" follows a young gangster named Joey who rises to become the undisputed boss of gangland after successfully completing a job in Chicago, but his success is short-lived when he is killed by rivals. The issue also contains a separate text story about an electrocutioner working on death row who grapples with the moral weight of administering executions, ultimately finding redemption in viewing his role as a cog in the machine of justice rather than bearing personal responsibility for the deaths. The story concludes with the execution of a red-haired murderer named Red Dog, after which the electrocutioner adopts a detached perspective on his grim duties.
