"Great Comic Library" appears along the top, then a "GCL" logo with letters intertwined appears in the middle, then "World's Best Comics" appears along the bottom. The phrase "World's Best Comics" also appears by itself on the front cover (only) of a 1947 issue.

| World's Best Comics | Fox | 7 | 1947 | 1947 | This slogan appears by itself in very plain text on the front (but not the back) of a single 1947 one-shot (Everybody's Comics). The same slogan, paired with "Great Comic Library" and a "GCL" logo was used on the backs of various 1944 Wm. H. Wise-published one-shots, as well as the 1946 issues of Everybody's Comics, one of which recycled the 1944 cover and the other of which paired those slogans with the more familiar winking foxhead and was actually published by Fox Feature Syndicate. |
