When Last We Left Avenger (aka Space Detective) and Teena...

Now, continue with the story...

Nobody's been able to identify the writer or artist(s) of this finale of a kool 3-part tale from Avon's Space Detective #3 (1952).

Cutting Up Comic Books!

And people wonder why it's so hard to find older comics in VF or better condition!

Many Bronze Age Marvels have a similar problem due to kids cutting the Marvel Value Stamps out of the letters pages!
