Crime Files #5 - Alex Toth art + 1st issue

Crime Files #5

Crime Files v1 #5 (#1), 1952 - After shooting a cop, two killers find themselves surrounded at every turn. Despite being a single page, this Alex Toth tale is lavishly drawn. Fine screen patterns are applied to backgrounds and shadows. Some areas seem muddy due to the poor reproduction, but overall his efforts are superlative. The effects are similar to his work in Crime and Punishment. Other artists in this golden age comic include George Tuska. This is 1 of 1 Crime Files issues by Toth. /// key 1st issue
