Archer St. John's first experiment with the heretofore untested form of the "Picture Novel" (the 2nd, "The Case of the Winking Buddha," illustrated by Charles Raab, sold even worse than this volume did and essentially killed St. John's experiment with the format) features stellar pencil artwork by the unsurpassed Matt Baker, doing some of his finest , most expressive work here, inked by Ray Osrin (Penciller and inker at Charlton, Dell, and Archie among others), and a noirish pulp-fiction-style story by Arnold Drake (who later went on to work for both DC and Marvel) and Les Waller (who went on to work in PR as well as become a novelist whose work includes novelizations of DOG DAY AFTERNOON, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, HIDE IN PLAIN SIGHT and FALCON CREST) writing together under the name "Drake Waller.")
