About the book

In 1949, the ambitious Biro - who had previously co-created the realistically brutal comic Crime Does Not pay - edited and wrote an over-sized comic aimed at adults called Tops. Like several other radical adult comics projects that would follow, it proved to be a commercial failure, and lasted only two Life magazine-sized issues. The original comics have since become a legendary holy grail among comics fans and historians, fetching as much as [6,000 on the collector's market, written about, but rarely seen and never reprinted. Until now.
