Shock SuspenStories: A Kind of Justice

An imprint of the infamous EC Comics line, Shock SuspenStories, which was apparently one of those series' that was brought before the committees that were investigating the violent content in comics in the Fifties.

Rather than the usual EC content of people receiving ironic punishments and stuff, SSS apparently was more in line with the realistic (and depressing) kind of crime dramas, with the below being such an example, and kind of suprising for its subject matter considering the time it was published in.

Warning: As stated, it's depressing.

  1. OMG! The reality displayed on this story makes me cry because in the end, Justice will not be served. A sad reality that persists today.
