Armed with her stunt training, quick thinking, and fearless resolve, Black Cat takes on a new wave of gangsters, spies, and shadowy villains. Non-stop excitement, bold visuals, and a heroine ahead of her time. Excellent artwork and a fun, all-ages storyline starring the sexy but still wholesome heroine.

It gets my highest recommendation. Elias is a brilliant artist and was the top gun at Harvey from the Black Cat days to the end of the Harvey Horror period in 1955. When the horror craze hit comics, even the Black Cat title switched over to being Black Cat Mystery and the Cat herself disappeared from her own title for a couple years, to be resurrected later on in 1955-56 and then again in the early 1960s. - Bud\u003c\/em\u003e\n\nLee Elias, after his steamy but wholesome work on the sexy \u003cem\u003eBlack Cat\u003c\/em\u003e, carried on with incredible horror covers and stories, which today are some of the most collectible in comics.
