Hello and welcome to the first crimebusting issue
of Crimebusters!!! Here you'll get a monthly dose of Golden Age goodness!
In this new book you will get a new Crimebuster and Daredevil (starting
next month) reprint each and every month of the year (and maybe even an
annual), as well as two back-up stories from the crime/detective genre
(or stories relating to crime, like Daffy in this issue), a Crimebuster,
Daredevil, or Little Wise Guys text story (because they are by far the
BEST text stories of the Golden Age!), and maybe even a new story from
time to time! I hope you love this new book as much as I do. Enjoy, and
PLEASE tell me what you think of it!
Oh! Before I forget, be sure to read the special
feature this month! A five page interview with Pure Excitement Comics editor,
Bill Nolan! It's not to be missed!!!

-Other information- Learning
his father had been killed by the Nazi Iron Jaw, Chuck Chandler sets off
around the world to find him wearing his school hockey uniform and cape.
This would be his Crimebuster uniform until 1950 when a girl would refuse
to be seen with him in his ridiculous costume. From then on he dropped
the cape and kept only the sweater with blue dress pants. CB also kept
a pet monkey, Squeeks, who saved his life more than once!
