Gang Busters #15

Straight from the pages of one of radio's most popular crime-fighting franchises, Gang Busters #15 (1950) delivers 52 big pages of law-and-order action for just a dime. Nick Cardy's cover says it all: a firm hand presses an official "Case Closed" stamp down onto a photograph of the Hazard Family — four sharply dressed criminals whose days of running free are clearly numbered — with the bold promise that "The Long Arm of the Law Stamps Out the Four Sons of Crime." The tagline at the bottom, "You Can't Beat the Law!", captures exactly the confident, no-nonsense spirit that made Gang Busters a coast-to-coast sensation.
