Murder Incorporated #11

Frank Nash, a criminal mastermind with a gift for meticulous planning, convinces cronies Buzzie Weeks and Joe Hunken to join him in a series of daring crimes—starting with a carefully orchestrated bank robbery that showcases his talent for charting every detail. But Nash's ambitions don't stop there, and his schemes eventually spiral into an audacious prison break that brings the full force of law enforcement down on him. This 1949 crime tale chronicles the rise and fall of a gangster who believes his intellect can outsmart the system—until he discovers it can't.

George Sitts, a ruthless escaped convict desperate to stay out of the chair, guns down a druggist during a bungled robbery and then forces his former flame Aggie Anderson—now married to Harold—to dig out the bullet at gunpoint. As police close in and Sitts' violent desperation escalates, the manhunt transforms into a deadly game where the killer will stop at nothing to elude capture, leaving bodies in his wake.

Alvin "Old Creepy" Karpis starts as a sixteen-year-old stickup artist in Kansas and quickly graduates to kidnapping, murder, and organized crime—racking up prison time and darker ambitions along the way. When he and his associates, including Dodo Damper and Pete Rock, orchestrate the kidnapping of industrialist John Baxter Baconn for ransom, Karpis's paranoid delusions and violent nature set in motion a chain of events that will seal his fate. E. Jackson's pencils and inks capture the brutal rise and fall of a man whose cold nerve and gun-crazy mind prove far deadlier to himself than to anyone else.
