SOTIcollector Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 (edited) On 9/26/2021 at 9:18 PM, gozer said: There are no pictures in SOTI of any CbW_3 art. The "reference" is a bit second-hand IMO. On pg 234 of SOTI, Wertham quotes someone else (Dr. Barbour) about the language of women in comics. So yes, there is a link between CbW_3 and SOTI, although CbW_3 is not named. Thank you for looking, and cheerio. Yes, that is the SOTI reference. Only a handful of books (16 pages worth) had images that were pictured in SOTI. There are more than 100 books that were just referenced in the text of SOTI, and this is one of those. Like nearly all of the books Wertham references, he makes no mention of title and issue number. Crimes By Women #3 was also mentioned in Geoffrey Wagner's Parade of Pleasure. "Most of these books are adorned with the picture of some tough, well-chested woman, a cross between a bouncer in a honky-tonk and a Notre Dame full-back in physical appearance below the Aryan tresses, often engaged in beating up the coppers. “Try this in ya belly, ya louse,” is standard address from buxom blonde to crime-comic cop..."
