This volume and Crime Does Not Pay Archives Vols. 1-9 are all out of print.
From the publisher:
Gangsters, kidnappers, maniacal killers, and thugs of all stripes had their lurid stories recounted in Crime Does Not Pay! Featuring thrilling, brutal tales and disturbing, despicable characters, Crime Does Not Pay enthralled a nation and was the most popular comic book of its time. The series was a favorite target of Dr. Fredric Wertham and other censors and is partially responsible for the creation of the Comics Code Authority--yet it was also an inspiration for Harvey Kurtzman's reality-based EC Comics. See why this series was both revered and reviled in this unique "best of" primer!
* Crime Does Not Pay editor Bob Wood brutally murdered his girlfriend and was later murdered himself! This fascinating sidebar is detailed in an essay by cartoonist, historian, and co-editor Denis Kitchen.
* Contains a selection of stories from across the series' run in the 1940s, a new cover, an illustrated essay, and an introduction.
* All-new Crime-inspired cover by artist Pete Poplaski with colors by Bernie Mireault.
