In the days before the right to an attorney was codified by law, Richard Manning WAS THE PUBLIC DEFENDER IN ACTION, taking on the cases of the poor and under-represented, using his brain to solve the cases and his fists, where needed, to make sure that nothing and no one got in the way of justice. This short-lived series lives up to the hype - - it's a legal drama and action comic all rolled into one. This is the complete six-issue series – every story, every pulse-pounding panel!
