Fantastic pickup- Congrats!

Is there a more disturbing precode cover ever than this classic suicide cover by Craig? 

I always thought the guy was being shot by another man due to the color of the sleeves as they look different, so I assumed different. Then one day I looked more carefully and see the reflection.

Thought the exact same thing for years as a kid. Along with the reasons you mentioned, something about the angle of the arm just doesn't seem correct.

Pretty sick but I think it could go toe to toe with The Widow of Death from Underworld #3.

Realizing these would have been better in the Golden Age thread.  Way too little dismemberment and horrific deaths on these covers.

They certainly belong there, but I'm really glad to see them here too! Anything atomic age roughly 48-55 is stuff I love, obviously precode horror, but scifi as well, and any and all GGA. Your copies are wonderful! :)
