PRE CODE CLASSICS BAFFLING MYSTERIES SOFTEE (2025)

Hey there, gore fiends, there aren't too many contents pages that can boast this level of writer and artist scribblers as was the case way back with Ace Magazines' Baffling Mysteries, now in its cadaverous fourth PS volume. Take a look: Lou Cameron, Sy Grudko, Louis Zansky, Ken Rice, Jim McLaughlin, Martin Rose, Jay Scott Pike, Mike Sekowsky ,Maurice Gutwirth and George Appel. The original copies of these comics will have been swapped a hundred-fold or sold for pennies when the recess bell sounded in the magical long-ago 1950s schoolyards. Collects Baffling Mysteries #20-24 (April 1954 to January 1955).

The only thing baffling about this baby is why we didn't bring it out this super softee version sooner! c'mon! Jim McLaughlin, Charles Nicholas, Lin Streeter, Louis Zansky, Ken Rice, Lou Cameron, Dick Beck, Al Hartley, Syd Grudko and Frank Giusto and all of 'em from the frightfull freakin' fab 'n' fantastic fifties! Hey, throw another log on the fire and lets get down to business! Collects Baffling Mysteries #15-19 (May 1953-January 1954).
