Why is this comic book valuable?
The third installment of Suspense Comics was released in April 1944 by Continental. This comic is recognized for its classic bondage cover, which was rare in the comic genre at the time. Perhaps the best-known cover of the Golden Age, this Alex Schomburg cover features a hooded Nazi, a spear-toting hero, and a pretty woman bound. This particular cover was based on a real-life depiction of a KKK meeting.
