The Atlas Comics Library HC (2025)
Before focusing on superheroes, Marvel published eleven crime-related titles including Justice Comics, Official True Crime Cases, All-True Crime, Crime Cases, Crime Can't Win, Crime Must Lose, and Crime Exposed. Of these, Fantagraphics has selected Police Action which features a run of noir-ish morality plays, pitting the police against the criminal element, and was produced by the cream of the Atlas freelance roster. Rounding the volume off is Police Badge #479, a snapshot of the industry's attempts to adapt to the new Comics Code.
