Uncut and uncensored, the infamous pre-code "Crime Does Not Pay" comics are finally collected into a series of archival hardcovers! With brutal, realistic tales focusing on vile criminals, "Crime Does Not Pay" was one of the most popular comics of the 1940s. The series was a favorite target of Dr. Frederic Wertham and other censors and is partially responsible for the creation of the stifling Comics Code Authority. Now revered and mythic, this collection of the first four hard-to-find "Crime Does Not Pay" comics features a fine roster of golden-age creators and a new introduction by Matt Fraction ("Iron Man", "Casanova").
