The Shield, tough guy, is tracking down a vicious killer, someone he has never seen before. And he first encounters him in a dark room...
Really? Insulting personal appearances? Of a man you've never actually seen??
Look, Shield, at all the feelings you've hurt with your gratuitous bullying comment:
Next time, be a little more careful with your words, OK?
Don't worry, instant karma fans...in the very next panel our killer gets away by kicking Shield in the groinitological area...
...he kills another victim and sticking the body in a department store window, just to humiliate Shield...
...and the Shield doesn't even stop him...the murderer accidentally guillotines himself in another department store window!!
So remember the "fatty" for a long time, Shield...he out-fought and out-thought your bony ass...

I'm sure there's a moral in there somewhere. A big fat one.
Lacy's certainly went all-out with their window props!! I used to work in store display, at the old Filene's in Boston, & I must say, we NEVER had the luxury of a working guillotine in any of our windows!! lol
Yeah, having a loaded guillotine in your store window is pretty hard core.
Still, the fatty remark was highly uncalled for.
Yeah, ... the 'fatty' remark was highly uncalled for...
Geeesh.!! You wouldn't want to hurt that killer's feelings...!!
Some snowflake in the '40's would cry...!!!
