Teen-Aged Dope Slaves and Reform School Girls #[nn]

This 1989 Eclipse collection reprints two pre-Code horror-tinged crime comics from the 1950s: 'Teen-Aged Dope Slaves' and 'Reform School Girls,' both originally published by the notorious Youthful Comics. The volume showcases the lurid, cautionary-tale style of the era, with stories warning of the perils of drug use and juvenile delinquency, rendered in the raw, unvarnished artwork typical of the period's crime and horror comics. It's a snapshot of the moral panic-driven comics that helped spark the Senate hearings and the Comics Code Authority.
