New Adventure Comics #30

From September 1938, this DC anthology delivers a full 64 pages of action for just a dime. Creig Flessel's cover captures a harrowing moment at sea — a massive whale's tail crashes through churning waves, sending at least one sailor tumbling from a small wooden rowboat while a second crewman struggles desperately at the oars. Inside, Fred Guardineer handles writing, pencils, and inks for "El Diablo, Part 3," making this a fine snapshot of the energy and variety that defined early DC comics publishing.
