“Vendetta”

In "Vendetta," a 1941 issue of Top Notch Comics, the notorious criminal known as the Skull faces execution—only to be approached by the mysterious Hermit, who seeks to trade places with him in a bid to exonerate framed NYPD officer Kip Burland. Written by Harry Shorten and illustrated by Al Camy, this gripping tale unfolds with a deadly twist as the Skull manipulates the Hermit’s plan, using a slow-acting poison to alter his face, setting up a chilling game of identity and revenge. The cover, also by Al Camy, captures the tension with a stark, dramatic portrait of the Skull.

Behind bars and facing death, the Skull is approached by the Hermit, who is well aware that the vicious criminal is responsible for framing New York City policeman Kip Burland for a crime he never committed. The Hermit's plan is to switch places with the confined criminal, in hopes of clearing Burland of all charges, but the Skull turns the tables on the Hermit, injecting him with a slow-acting poison that will change the features of the man into those of the Skull.
