    Atlas Comics Library HC (2023 Fantagraphics) 5-1ST


    (see more images)

    Volume 5 - 1st printing. "Police Action!" Collects Police Action (1954 Atlas) #1-7 and Police Badge #479 (1955) #5. Featuring tories by Dick Ayers, Mannie Banks, Vic Carrabotta, Tony Dipreta, Bob Forgione, John Forte, Ed Goldfarb, Ed Moline, Seymour Moskowitz, George Olesen, Art Peddy, Bob Powell, Paul Reinman, Robert Q. Sale, and Carl Wessler. Introduction by Dr. Michael J. Vassallo. Before focusing on tales of justice via superheroes under the Marvel banner, the publisher covered groundlevel crime across a range of comics titles and truecrime magazines. Under the Timely imprint from 1947, and Atlas from 1951, up to eleven graphic series including Justice Comics, Official True Crime Cases, AllTrue Crime, Crime Cases, Crime Can't Win, Crime Must Lose, and Crime Exposed all muscled each other and competitors for space on the newsstands.For the first crimethemed volume in Fantagraphics' ongoing project to restore and resurrect preMarvel pulp classics, the Atlas Library has selected a book that debuted as the genre peaked, just before a Senate hearing and the institution of the Comics Code banned the use of the word "Crime" from even appearing in a comic's title. Escaping that fate, Police Action had a sevenissue run of violent and noirish morality plays, pitting the officers of the law against the forces of urban malevolence, and was produced by the cream of the Atlas freelance roster, including Joe Maneely, Robert Q. Sale, Gene Colan, Art Peddy, Mort Lawrence, Werner Roth and Bob Powell.Rounding the volume off, also presented is a postCode oneshot, Police Badge #479, a snapshot of the industry's attempts to adapt to new strictures on the genre: here we view "our boys in blue" in the fight against rank corruption, highlighting the work of Don Heck and Joe Maneely. Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 254 pages, full color. Cover price $44.99.

    Volume 5 - 1st printing. "1930: The Bungle Family!"

    Story and Art by Harry J. Tuthill.

    Art Spiegelman called The Bungle Family "the most underrated comic strip in our history." Bill Blackbeard wrote, "There has been nothing like it in comic strips since."

Tuthill's masterpiece have been available to modern readers. Until now! This volume-collecting the complete 1930 dailies-remedies that situation.
