An excellent story, drawn very well by Parker, and I was glad it was given the entire book. And the colouring was also done very well. Too bad it wasn't a 52-page book. It needed more flushing out at the end, which came too abruptly, and would have been better if it had more room for the reader to see details of the criminal organisation's structure, and at least one or two examples of how it operated, and what its goals were. And, we would have liked to see what happened to it after its five leaders were killed, or put out of action.

I think it was an interesting choice to make film star, Dick Powell into a fictional character, with his own adventures. But, it was a bit unbelievable that he would take on a criminal ring on his own, with no client, "on the come", hoping to get the party who most benefitted from his risking his life and eraticating that nuisance without a client (which might be a government agency?).
