Objected to the cover? The cover of "The Confession" was tame
compared to several others in the series! That's one of the

"original cover art in the grand pulp style." You can check

Not to mention EC comics. Of course, EC became
the scapegoat of Dr.

investigation of the
effect of comics on juvenile delinquency, for
which Wertham was an
expert witness.
