Volume 8 - 1st printing. "January-September 1954/June 1955!" Collects Dynamite (1953 Comic Media) #6-10. Cover by Pete Morisi. Johnny Dynamite, created by Pete Morisi, was a hard-boiled private detective, known as "The Wild Man from Chicago." Good friends with the D.A. but readily accepted by the underworld, he smoked cigarettes constantly, cursed frequently and had a bad habit of getting shot and beaten by his enemies. But always gave as good as he got; he was an experienced and persistent detective taking his cases very personally and killed many of his early foes, claiming they were reaching for a weapon. Myra Benz, who had shot him in the eye, was brazenly killed without any true justification beyond his own sense of justice. Hardcover, 184 pages, full color. Cover price $52.99.
