Gang Busters #4

Based on the smash radio hit that thrilled audiences nationwide, Gang Busters #4 (1948) brings the action crashing right through the page — literally. Win Mortimer's cover depicts a determined officer in blue, pistol drawn, bursting through a torn paper barrier astride a vivid red motorcycle, with the tagline "You Can't Beat the Law!" setting the tone perfectly. Inside, "Jail Break" tells the story of Blake Magraw, who swore no prison could hold him — a bold promise that this 52-page DC publication is clearly ready to put to the test.
