TITAN BESTSELLING HARD CASE CRIME SERIES IS BACK!

A stylish, glamorous feminist take on the classic gumshoe!

Private investigator Minky Woodcock becomes involved in an investigation of maverick genius and reclusive pigeon-fancier, Nikola Tesla, and discovers a horrifying conspiracy involving corrupt politicians and Nazis.

Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 12-in., 128 pages, full color. Mature Readers

Cover price $24.99.

A low print run and high price for the time (15 cents!) combined to make this one-shot among the rarest of the era's crime comics, with perhaps 20-100 copies surviving. The over-the-top cover contributes to the book's fame, particularly because it has nothing to do with the contents. Pre-Code crime comics from Hillman, possibly printed to clear out a backlog before the publisher ended its comics lineup a few months later. The Crutch to Paradise; Another Hallowe'en; The Boss of Ice Alley; Oregon Tiger; The Canvas Tomb; The Cold Doorstop; The Two-Legged Newspaper; Neighbors in Blue. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.15.
