Looking for mystery/detective quiz short comics or comic strips

4 posts in this topic

Hi Everyone, I am trying to find short english mystery or detective comics that ends with a quiz where the answer is given after the story is finished or written upside down.
A very close example is "inspector danger's crime quiz"
It can be normal comics but short - 4 pages max - or comic strips or webcomics.
And the must if for the answer to be outside the plot so that it's a brain teaser to think about the answer.

any help?

You could try the Mike Mist Minute Mist-eries #1, published by Eclipse in 1981, which featured single page stories by Max Allan Collins and Terry Beatty.  An explanation of how Mist solved each mystery is printed upside down at the end of each page. Mike Mist backups also appeared in Ms Tree.

And there's the Encyclopedia Brown comic strip, which ran as a daily and Sunday from 1978-1980. 

It's just what you're looking for, including the upside-down answer in the last panel of the Sunday strips.
