Police Comics was a comic book anthology title published by Quality Comics (under its imprint "Comic Magazines") from 1941 until 1953. It featured short stories in the superhero, crime and humor genres.[1]
Publication history
The first issue of Police Comics featured the debuts of
711, who was introduced in Police Comics #1; and Will Eisner's The Spirit
, in the form of reprints of the character's newspaper comic strips.
After the popularity of superhero comics waned, Police Comics shifted with issue #103 (December 1950) to more naturalistic detective and crime-themed stories. The series ended in October 1953 with issue #127.
