Penalty

Ace Magazines [1940s-1950s] · 1955–1956 · 2 issues
About the series

A short-lived but punchy crime comic from Ace Magazines, Penalty ran for just two issues in 1955 and 1956. Featuring gritty, hard-boiled art by Frank Giusto and Ken Battefield, the series delivered a snapshot of mid-century crime storytelling as the genre was waning. It stands as a minor but authentic artifact of the era's pulp-infused comic book landscape.
