About the series
A short-lived, two-issue crime comic from Pines Comics, Date with Danger (1952–1953) offered a grimly romantic take on the genre, pairing tales of femme fatales and hard-luck criminals with artwork most frequently handled by Ralph Mayo and Ross Andru. Though its run was brief, the series captures the transitional moment in early 1950s comics just before the industry's self-censorship crackdown, making it a compact artifact of pre-Code crime storytelling.
