    Volume 10 - 1st printing. "1933: Detective Dan, Secret Operative 48!"

    Story and Art by Norman Marsh.

    Considered the first comic book with original material ever produced, 1933's "Detective Dan, Secret Op. 48" was a landmark. It only lasted one issue before morphing into the Dan Dunn newspaper strip. A blatant copy of Chester Gould's Dick Tracy (Norman Marsh had been an art assistant to Gould), Dan Dunn was a rough and tumble Secret Service agent who exacted violent retribution on any criminal who dared cross his path. This book reprints the entire first year of daily comics.

    Hardcover (Horizontal Format), 11 1/2-in. x 4 1/2-in., 344 pages, B&W.

    Cover price $29.99.
