When career criminal Joe Dixon loses his partner Frank to betrayal, he spots an eager young neighborhood punk named Joey Bartell committing a mugging—and sees the perfect mark for exploitation. Rebranding the kid as "Little Joe" and outfitting him to be his physical double, Dixon trains the naive recruit in a series of escalating heists, but their partnership unravels when a bank job goes sideways and the heat from the law closes in. As Dixon's schemes collapse around him, the real danger comes from an unexpected quarter—the very person he underestimated most.

The Punk with the Itchy Fingers
7 pp · crime

Jud Perkins is a small-time troublemaker given one last chance by his parents to go straight, taking a messenger job at the Joanne Dress Company. When an old street acquaintance tempts him with easy money for diverting packages, Jud assembles a scheme with a postal worker and a crooked fence—but as greed pushes him to expand the operation, the stakes and dangers grow darker than he bargained for. This 1953 crime tale charts how a young man's hunger for quick cash spirals into something far more sinister.
