Wit

Despite the title, this magazine, subtitled "Modern Mirth and Mystery" mainly contained a series of detective stories about sleuths Rex Dimond & Sally Dexter by Martin Thomas, and anonymous mystery vignettes.

A third issue was announced but it has never been located and was probably not published.
