"Super-Sleuth" & NEW ADVENTURES OF SHERLOCK HOLMES "Safe Robber"

Even Sherlock Holmes' creator appeared in comic book form...
...as shown in this never-reprinted story from DC's Real Fact Comics #19 (1949)!
This fascinating short was written by Jack Schiff, Mort Weisinger, and Bernie Breslauer, and illustrated by Jack Lehti.
Now here's Sir Arthur's creation in action...
Scripted by Paul S Newman and rendered by Bob Fujitani, this never-reprinted short appeared between two longer tales in Dell's Four Color #1245 (1962), the second (and last) of the authorized issues (by Doyle's estate) which featured original tales, not adaptations of classic Holmes tales.
We'll be back soon with another tale of mystery..
