Again, I don't believe Harry Anderson inked his own pencils here. As evidence I suggest comparing our page 20 in the present issue, a good collection of medium shot and closeups, to our page 30 of Orbit's "Wanted Comics," which Anderson definitely inked:

Both pages were published in late 1951. Anderson's inking was heavy on pen work and detail. The T-Man inks are mostly brushwork using thick, untextured strokes. |

Art originally credited to A.W. Hargis by Bob Hughes, but it is not like the signed Hargis stories in Police Comics #108 and 116. Hargis has faces with smaller chin and jaws, and many views from just below or above the head. His figure movement is not as "Bob Kane-like" as here.
Edmond Good is credited on this feature by Jerry Bails' Who's Who, also by an art sample by these two artists. Same art as here. |

The round eyes and lines in the outer corners are very typical Anderson. |
