It's the Humanity!," Zach Gristle, small-town butcher, cuts costs by selling sub-par steaks to his customers. One thing leads to another and soon he's selling his customers tainted horseflesh. By the final panel, the crooked butcher meats one of the gristliest fates in the annals of pre-Code horror: his son's dead, poisoned by pop's product; his wife's homicidally nuts; and his corpse is carved into cutlets and displayed in his meat case.______________________________________________________________
