Voodoo Dolls

Here’s an obnoxiously deranged little gem from the July 1954 issue of Weird Mysteries #11 , proving: “With great power comes even greater irresponsibility.” Includes a wonderfully catchy little ditty in the final panel that you’ll be singing for days on end! [Pity no one seems to know who the artist is-- that is one wacky splash panel! -- Nequam]

    Well,the art isn't the greatest,at least it's serviceable though,and the freakout expressions are great.what I dont get is why he decides to kill everyone,heck,i'd use the cover of people not believing in me(hmmm,now where did i hear that before?)to get ahead,Kendall probably just wanted life insurance or something,but either way,the song more than makes up for it.
