Speed Detective - 02/43

SPEED DETECTIVE was the answer to the problems Culture Publications had with their "Spicy" titles. The mayor and blue-noses of the era was coming down hard on publishers who published what they thought was "smut." Not wanting to lose out on their real bread and butter books...namely their comic line with SUPERMAN and BATMAN, so publisher Harry Donenfeld made the switch to the less offensive "Speed" name. They did so with all their books, MYSTERY, ADVENTURE, WESTERN and DETECTIVE. THE DAME DIES TWICE by Robert Leslie Bellem Somewhere in that crowd of more than a hundred extras, carpenters, juiciers, technicians, and what not, Dan knows there is a man who once was hooked up with Rocky Caesar's Chicago mob. And that man is the man who killed Lyssa! But how is he to be found? MURDER BEFORE BREAKFAST by Roger Torrey He was in the jail when they shot him. There was no question "how?" but nobody could guess, "why?" In the brains of three smart girls lay most of the secret.
