Crime has been combined with many genres in comics...
...like westerns, war, sci-fi...even horror and the supernatural!
But only once did comics combine mystery with romance, in the appropriately-named Love Mystery!
Who's lurking outside?
Be here next week for the thrilling conclusion!
This tale of love and legal matters from Fawcett's Love Mystery #3 (1950) was illustrated by Bob Powell, an ideal choice since he was expert at both romance and crime tales!
The scripter is unknown.
Fawcett tried things no one else would attempt including this title and Negro Romance, hoping to find untapped markets.
Unfortunately, in both cases, the audience never materialized, and both books were cancelled after only three issues.
