Famous Crimes #20
This issue is an anthology featuring two crime stories. "Baby Judson and the Equalizer" recounts how English criminal Baby Judson, a diminutive gangster who fled London in February 1937, packed 120 pounds of dynamite into a five-foot frame to terrorize society until an associate nicknamed "the Equalizer" used an unconventional method to stop him. The second story depicts a couple's desperate attempt to escape a criminal, Bull Tuttle, who pursues them after they accidentally discover his hideout; the man outwits Tuttle by disabling his car's brakes and causing a crash, allowing the family to escape to safety.
