Mad-Dog Killer Vincent Coll!

Sometimes the monsters that temporarily roam this planet aren't summoned from fiery bottomless pits, or created in shadowy cold laboratories. "Mad-Dog" Vincent Coll was a TRUE horror story, a brutal Irish mob hitman in early 20th-century New York City who gained notoriety for the accidental killing of a young child during a mob kidnap attempt. His short and violent life has been examined in popular movies and tv shows (check the wikipedia link above for more info on this too) as well as in this nicely done back-up feature from Avon Comics' 1951 one-shot issue of Hooded Menace #1. It's not a "horror" story of course, but does contain some supremely bloody, and horrifying moments... and it's another good example of the 'ol ultra violence displayed in pre-code crime comics.
