Owner's Description

Top Secrets #7 is referenced in Fredric Wertham’s “Seduction of the Innocent” (SOTI) in Illustration #21 and in the text on page 90.

Illustration #21 depicts a panel from Top Secrets #7 that demonstrates the self defense “vulnerable” areas of the human body. Wertham captioned the illustration “How to hurt people”. Additional commentary on the comic is provided in the text on page 90 “Where crime comics pay a hypocritical obeisance to educational demands they show their true colors even more clearly. For example, under the lame pretext of self-defense, they show pictures of ‘Vulnerable Areas’ in the human body with such notations as: EYES: finger jab or thumb gouge BRIDE of NOSE: edge of hand blow”.

This comic was also referenced in the 1951 New York Legislative Committee Comic Censorship report on pages 55-57.
