Police Trap

A hard-hitting, four-issue crime comic from I. W. Publishing's Super Comics line, Police Trap (1963–1964) was a gritty, short-lived series that featured the legendary Jack Kirby as its most frequent writer. With art by the likes of Art Gates, Marvin Stein, and Mort Meskin, the series delivered taut, no-nonsense tales of law enforcement and criminal pursuit, capturing a raw, pre-Code-style edge even as the Silver Age was in full swing. Though brief, it stands as a fascinating, lesser-known showcase of Kirby's storytelling range beyond superheroes, paired with seasoned artists who brought a cinematic urgency to every panel.
