Crime Does Not Pay Archives #2

This Dark Horse Archives volume collects Crime Does Not Pay issues 26–29, preserving some of the most hard-boiled crime comics of their era in a handsome hardcover edition with a foreword by Greg Rucka. The cover by Charles Biro crackles with kinetic energy — a man is flung from a speeding car while two other figures grapple violently alongside it, the whole scene rendered in Biro's bold, punchy linework. Promising "All True Crime Stories," this volume delivers exactly the kind of gritty, street-level drama that made Crime Does Not Pay one of the defining titles of the genre.
