RedFury Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Thanks! Does anyone know if the cover story "My Cargo Was Death" was inspired by the film The Wages of Fear? I've never read the story or seen the film ( ) but the cover looks similar to what I know of the film story: some poor schlubs are hired to drive some trucks loaded with nitro over a dangerous road in South America. According to Wikipedia , the film was released in France in 1953, but wasn't released in the US until Feb 1955. Since My Greatest Adventure #1 is dated Jan-Feb 1955, it was probably written and drawn in the summer of '54 and on the newsstand in Oct or Nov of that year. I guess it's possible the writer had seen the film in France, or maybe at an art-house showing in NY, but that's unlikely. GCD has no info on who wrote the story. Anyone know anything about this?
