Super Comics #57

In Super Comics #57, a 1943 Western publication with a 10-cent cover price, circus performer Clyde is preparing for his act when he uncovers a deliberate sabotage—someone has placed a splinter under the elephant’s saddle, likely to provoke chaos. Drawn by Jim Chambers, whose distinctive art brings the tension to life, this issue captures a moment of quiet dread beneath the big top’s usual spectacle.
