America’s most well-known, hardboiled detective, Mike Hammer, returns with Hermes Press’ complete archival reprint of the entire continuity, From the Files of... Mike Hammer! Reprinting all of the dailies and Sunday strips (in digitally reconstructed color) this book will be the final word on this pop culture icon. The strip, which was distributed to newspapers by the Phoenix Features Syndicate, ran for only one year (1953-1954) — but what a year it was! The strip is pure Mickey Spillane and was crafted under his watchful eye with art by Ed Robbins. The feature has everything fans of Mike Hammer would expect: Mike, Zelda, good girls, bad girls, gun-play, and lots of action! Accompanying the strips are two in-depth essays by noted mystery writer and Mickey Spillane expert Max Collins (Road to Perdition).

Here are fascinating stories that will take you down a path of horror. John Finney has been imprisoned in a basement where the phone rings every night and the victim of a serial killer speaks into the receiver... Imogen Gilchrist died at the Rosebud Cinema many years ago, but some visitors have seen her and talked to her for a quarter of a century. She knows everything about any movie and kisses like a movie star... Arthur Roth is full of great ideas, but he has trouble making friends because he is the only inflatable boy in town. Francis Kay is a teenager who has become a locust. And the first to kill those he truly loved. Each of these distinctive characters is eager to tell you their own story.
