Johnny "Socks" Lazia claws his way up from street-corner shakedowns to become Kansas City's ruthless underworld boss, building a criminal empire through protection rackets, warehouse heists, and increasingly bold schemes—but his hunger for power and disregard for life set him on a collision course with forces he can't outrun. Crafted by Rudy Palais with pencils and inks, this 1954 crime tale traces how a young hustler's taste for easy money and violence transforms him into a marked man.

Fred BellLefty"Gorilla" Jenkins"Sly Sam" ShortChuck Stryker

Fred Bell's ruthless climb through the criminal underworld begins in the 1920s when he abandons any pretense of honest work and joins a violent gang terrorizing the Atlantic coast. As Bell and his associates—including Lefty, "Sly Sam" Short, and "Gorilla" Jenkins—escalate from petty theft to car theft and worse, their ambitions grow as fast as the heat from law enforcement closing in. Watch as Bell's motto, "the sky's the limit," drives him and his crew toward an inevitable collision with justice.
