Payoff Blues

Fiction House had a bunch of comics they just called "[...] Comics" I guess so you know what they're about. Here is a story called 'Payoff Blues' by Jack Kamen, who didn't have to deal with the verbosity of the stories he did for EC where some of the panels had so many words all he could draw was tiny silhouettes or somebody's eyes. This comic cut to the edge of the panels is from GHOST COMICS #6 in 1952.
