Rex Morgan MD comic strip reprints by Marvin Bradley and Frank Edgington (possibly scripted by strip creator Nicholas P Dallis) |

The shocking title and story topic have made it a very desirable books among collectors driving the price higher than a strip reprint book normally would get. |

Thanks for completing this oddball gem! A great marketing move by Alfred Harvey, on the order of those old exploitation movies wherein you were suckered into the theatre by a trailer or a poster and once they had your ticket money, the utter disappointment of how tepid the actual picture was could be revealed.
And as a "Public Service"!!! Gotta love it.
While this book serves mainly to point out the generic lameness of the Rex Morgan strip in general, props to Harvey's Editorial and Art departments for their choices of those oversized panel blowups as dramatic punctuations to the safe-for-newspaper-syndication narrative. One can almost hear the mono notes of an organ from a cut-rate radio drama sounding behind those sweat-drenched panels. |
