Number 1447: Prison break!

Five cons try to shoot their way out of prison only to find that CRIME CAN'T WIN! Nor can busting out of prison.This story, which tells each killer's crimes, is a bit like a television or movie script, and accentuates the drama leading up to the fatal final scenes.

Syd Shores, one of the great journeymen artists of the Golden Age, lends his considerable talents to telling this violent tale. I have some links to more of Shores’ fine work after the story scans.

From Wanted Comics #51 (1953):
