JOHNNY PERIL: Death Has Five Guesses

Johnny Peril, mystery man and thrill-seeker. Never heard of him? Well allow me to introduce you to one of the lost golden age adventurers.
This appearance is a reprint of a much older story, and I think that DC at the time was trying to revive the character since he had as many appearances in the 70s as he did in his original run (though they were mostly reprints). With DC trying to update and upgrade their line of comics, we may yet see him again.
Read on.

by Robert Kanigher and Frank Giacoia
from SECRETS OF SINISTER HOUSE #17, April 1974

    Actually, Johnny had a fairly lengthy run of stories (more than 40)spread across at least three different magazine. In the late 1960s DC revived him for a year's run in "The Unexpected." Thanks for posting.

    THANKS!
    I haven't found any decent chronology on this character, so I just improvised.
