Crazy cover: Jungle goddess guts gator. Doc Wertham panned this mag due to an "educational page" featuring a lurid account of human sacrifice: "A young girl in modern evening dress, her wrists chained to a tall upholstered structure so that she leans backward in a recumbent position revealing the full length of her legs, with a definite erotic suggestion, is being menaced with a big knife held by a gruesome masked figure.... the education to sadism permeating this whole book is here fortified in the guise of history."
