Don Winslow of the Navy #44

From Fawcett's long-running naval adventure series comes issue #44, promising readers "The Scorpion's Web!" — and the cover delivers the tension immediately. A uniformed Navy officer clutching a flashlight rushes to free a woman in red who is tangled in a massive web, while a giant, menacing scorpion looms just below them in the moonlit darkness. It's a vivid snapshot of the pulpy wartime thrills that made Don Winslow of the Navy a staple of 1947 adventure comics.
