Owner's Description

Wanted #35 is referenced in Fredric Wertham’s “Seduction of the Innocent” (SOTI) in the text on page 160.

Wertham cites the story “The Arson Racket”, contained in Wanted #35, as an example of a comic story that teaches children how to commit crimes and describes it as follows “Many comic books describe how to set fires, by methods too various to enumerate. In some stories fire-setting is related just as a detail; in other stories such as ‘The Arson Racket’ the lesson is more systematic.”
