Kerry Drake #1

Kerry Drake, a cool-minded detective and razor-sharp fighter, pits his courage against "Fingers," a brutal strangler sworn to get even with the man who brought him to justice. The story involves a murder investigation where blood is discovered, and Drake pursues the criminal through various confrontations including scenes at a country location and efforts to apprehend the killer. The issue also features "Johnny Devildog," a war story by Mart Bailey depicting a United States Marine fighting in the Pacific theater during World War II, including action at Guadalcanal, Viru, and other island campaigns as he advances toward Japan.
