Mystery of the Missing Mummy

Something slightly different for our final March of the Mummies Monday, and we're going waaaay back to the March 1939 issue of Funny Picture Stories Volume 3 #2, from Centaur. It's a spooky old detective mystery full of fun, Saturday matinee serial thrills, and stiffly superb artwork by E. F. Webster, who also penned the script. GCD notes that aside from his foray into comics, Webster was also a fine arts painter, as well as a former federal agent. Maybe that explains his natural knack for weird mysteries, such as this. 

Hope everyone enjoyed this month of macabre mummery!
