Charles Biro does not get enough recognition. He was wordy and dense by modern standards but he wrote emotional stories that felt like a punch in the stomach.
I love this CRIME DOES NOT PAY cover
This is gruesome enough for a horror comic.
Okay, having your head pushed into open flame is going to hurt.
I think we've all had experiences like this.
Decent penmanship for a machine gun.
Especially when you realize he was writing backwards into the guy.
"The Mystery of Indian DIck" is definitely porn
Of course, remot starters make this less of a problem today.
What the fuck is this trash? Thank God for Werhem, who got this nonsense stopped.
I wish the lady in was you.
I remember being terrified of cars for a while as a child when I saw a tv show or tv movie that involved a guy's car exploding when he started it. I didn't realize it was rigged to explode and thought cars just sometimes did that.
I really like this cover and how it conveys a lot in so little space.
Yep, Yas Forums all right.
If you saw the originsl THE MECHANIC with Charles Bronson, there's an exploding car scene that everyone remembers.
I think it might have been walker texas ranger actually
Comics can sometimes create.images that live action can't replicate
>In 1958, after the cancellation of Crime Does Not Pay, Wood's drinking and gambling problems worsened, culminating in his arrest for manslaughter. After spending several days with a prostitute in a Gramercy Park hotel, Wood beat and killed her in an argument. After hailing a taxi, Wood told the driver, "I'm in terrible trouble. I'm going to get a couple of hours sleep and jump in the river." The cabbie responded "What happened? Did you kill somebody?", to which Wood replied "Yes, I killed a woman who was giving me a bad time in Room 91 of the Irving Hotel. Why don't you call someone at a newspaper and make yourself a few dollars?" The cabbie reported Wood's actions to the police, who arrested him at his Greenwich Village residential hotel. According to Joe Simon's account of the murder, "Wood's clothes were so bloodied, police borrowed a pair of pants from the hotel manager to take Wood in for questioning." Wood was sentenced to three years in prison for first-degree (voluntary) manslaughter.[2] He was paroled after two years and eight months, then arrested six months later on a parole violation, finally being released for good in July 1963. Three years after his release from prison, he was struck by a car while attempting to cross the Garden State Parkway.
I love it
>Little Billy was about to go to college and get a great job, but then he had a cigarette. Now he's a hopeless heriono addict."
>DON'T BE A BILLY
God damn
She's not really dressed for a digging job that big.
Compared to rappers, comic books artists have a low homicide rate.
That is the worst drawing of a neck I've seen in sometime. Are those parasites burrowing under the skin?
Jesus Christ
It amazes me the stuff Hollywood can make movies of but don't.
It all started with those little candy cigarettes at the dollar store...
Not crime related but I can think of a dozen science fiction novels that would make great movies. But we just get sequels.
>Leonard Keith Lawson (1927 – 29 November 2003), was a bestselling Australian comic book creator, successful commercial artist and photographer. However, he was also a notorious criminal who was sentenced to life imprisonment for rape and murder. He died in custody in 2003.
>Lawson first came to prominence as the creator of The Lone Avenger, an Australian comic book hero, whose first appearance was in the second issue of Action Comics in 1946, running for thirteen years, eventually taking over the entire comic and selling up to 70,000 copies. Lawson also created another masked Western vigilante hero The Hooded Rider, as well as Diana, Queen of the Apes and Peter Fury.
>In 1954, Lawson took five young models to bushland in Terrey Hills to take swimsuit photos for a calendar. He bound the women and sexually assaulted them, raping two. He was sentenced to death, which was commuted to 14 years in prison when the death penalty was abolished in New South Wales later that year. Lawson asked to continue producing The Lone Avenger in prison, but it was handed to another artist. The comic was subsequently banned in Queensland and withdrawn by its publisher. Lawson was released from prison in 1961 after serving seven years, or half, of his sentence.
>On 7 November 1962, Lawson sexually assaulted and murdered a 16-year-old girl whose portrait he was painting in his apartment. The next day, he took several hostages at the Sydney Church of England Girls' Grammar School, killing a 15-year-old girl in the ensuing siege. He was sentenced to life imprisonment. Lawson attacked a female dancer who performed in a concert at Parramatta jail, seemingly as part of an escape attempt. He died in Grafton Correctional Centre in November 2003.
The Comics Code Authority made a point of requiring law officers be respected.
It's Yas Forums, but go read baki. That's a true abomination of anatomy.
I loved how every crook on that show knew karate and so did every Ranger..even Nia Peeples.
I mean, it's not like I can draw any better. But bad art is like bad taxidermy in that it can be fascinating.
