Speed Demons #10

This March 1958 Charlton title delivers exactly what its tagline promises — "Full of Fast Action from the World of Speed!" — and the cover by Dick Giordano makes that feel like an understatement. A helmeted driver in orange racer No. 12 barrels straight at the viewer while a red car goes airborne overhead in a dramatic flip, with a blue competitor sliding through smoke in the background. Writer Joe Gill and artist Bill Fraccio bring the story inside, but it's hard to look away from Giordano's thrillingly composed scene long enough to open the cover.
