Trapped!

A short-lived but visually striking crime comic from Ace Magazines, Trapped! ran for just four issues in the mid-1950s, a period when the genre was under increasing scrutiny. The series is most notable for featuring the early work of artist Gene Colan, who brought his distinctive, shadow-filled style to tales of criminals and the law closing in on them. While brief, it stands as a representative artifact of the pre-Code crime comics era, showcasing the moody, gritty artwork that would later define Colan's legendary career.
