About the Complete Dick Tracy Hardcover Volume 5 1938-1939

Dick Tracy Volume 5 kicks off with a human trafficking story that could be torn from today's headlines, as the dauntless detective encounters a captive woman who bears a striking resemblance to real life sex symbol Dorothy Lamour! That woman, Noana, is just one of the lively characters Chester Gould introduces as Clover Press and The Library of American Comics continue to re-release the original six Dick Tracy volumes in the larger size that will allow the entire series to exist in one uniform format. In these exciting tales, Tracy goes undercover to bring down the elusive mobster Ramm; joins forces with Junior and bumbling newcomer Brighton Spotts to foil the plans of wanted man Jojo Nidle; and pays a heavy price as he teams with G-Man Jim Trailer to thwart the schemes of an international criminal named Karpse and his icy sweetheart, Marro-but what does it take to stop the criminal rampage of that deformed gunsel, Scardol? Savor the larger-size, non-stop action in Dick Tracy Volume 5 to find out!
