The ubiquitous cover girl of the Golden Age of comics!
I think the reluctant driver is really just stalling for time until the artist can find better reference material for drawing automobiles, if the weird angles and shape of their vehicular setpiece is any indication. Exposed v1 #5, DS Publishing
The “Suspense” of the cover scene is somewhat reduced by the fact that the policeman is literally standing just around the corner from the pursuing villain. Suspense Comics #2, Holyoke
All’s fair in (first) love (illustrated) and war. First Love Illustrated #31, Harvey
I can’t believe the bad guy fell for the ol’ “Distract-the-hooded-cultist-with-a-girl-in-a-skimpy-harem-outfit-while-the-hero-sneaks-up-and-pulls-a-gun-on-him” trick. The Black Terror #20, Pines
The Blonde in Red is clearly startled! (Less by her epic sci-fi predicament with giant space bugs and more by the fact that the Fighting Yank somehow still got himself top billing despite not showing up for the cover.) Startling Comics #44, Pines

Yikes! That robot better be waterproof, or this could end up like those cautionary tales about a hairdryer in a bathtub. Startling Comics #49, Pines
I’m… I’m pretty sure that’s NOT how outer space works. Startling Comics #50, Pines
Shooting through holes in the spaceship windows? Once again, I’m not sure that’s how outer space is supposed to work. Startling Comics #51
