The Mistress will "blow you away."
Quick Front Cover Impression: The Mistress is a dead shot, in many ways.
Yes, I avoided the very obvious reference.
The profile view of the Mistress on the cover of this issue is very nice, as is the background art. The story by Joey Cavalieri is quite enjoyable, in a schlocky way.
I'm hoping to obtain a CGC graded 9.8 copy of this issue that has white pages.

The Mistress enjoys being in "bondage and swinging."
Quick Front Cover Impression: I would love to swing with the Mistress; no need for shackles, unless she wants them.
I'm still hopeful to obtain a CGC graded 9.8 copy of this issue with white pages.

The Mistress is very hot, even without a torch.
Quick Front Cover Impression: The Mistress is an American treasure (chest).
I was fortunate to purchase a CGC graded 9.8 copy of this issue with white pages. A soon as I have an opportunity, I will scan the front and back covers of it and add the scans to this set.

Santa's got quite the pair on his hands and, naturally, a hard lump of coal.
Quick Front Cover Impression: The Mistress would be quite the stocking stuffer.
This issue is a jolly (I know!) good read with a wonderful holiday cover. In addition to the original owner copies I purchased of this issue, I also purchased several other back issue copies that I will grade hopefully sooner rather than later and send the worthy ones to CGC for grading.
