Just got the final issue I needed to complete this run. The toughest issue of the run, at least in my oppinion. There are only 2 graded copies in the census: a 3.0 & a 4.5. :cloud9:

Recently acquired a copy of a scarce, but relatively unknown GA gem, Justice Traps the Guilty #56. It's a "classic cover" according to Oversteet but since this is CGC's first and only certified copy, I thought I'd give a little background as to its significance, FYI:

The cover for Justice Traps the Guilty #56 has been reproduced in Joe Simon’s book “The Comic Book Makers” and “The Art of Jack Kirby” by Ray Wyman, Jr. The cover’s fame rests not so much on its artistic value (no offense to Martin Stein) but on the people portrayed in the police lineup. Here as the suspects we find starting from our left Ben Oda (Simon and Kirby’s letterer), Joe Simon, Joe Genalo (Prize editor), Mort Meskin and Jack Kirby. This was, of course, an inside joke because none of these individuals were actually criminals, nor were they likely to be recognized by the public.

 

Kudos to Jim Payette for getting this one for me. If you come across another copy, snap it up for a witty (and not expensive) slice of comics history. (thumbs u
