They call him Johnny Diamonds. Johnny D's for short. He's a jewel thief, and a damned good one. At least he was until that fateful night when he ran into the masked hero known as The Grey Ghost, the Specter of Justice. Only one of them walked away from the encounter, and... well, let's just say they wear the same size suit. Now he has to work both sides of the law -- boosting ice as the nefarious Johnny D's, and fighting crime as the dashing Grey Ghost. It seemed like a pretty sweet setup -- getting rich off stolen gems while putting his rivals in jail. That was until the night that someone frames Johnny for murder, and he's forced to don the mask and trench coat of the Grey Ghost once more, this time to prove his own innocence. In the desperate days that follow Johnny has to team up with another masked crime-fighter, the mysterious Phantom Detective, as together they take on a city full of corrupt cops, vengeful mobsters and the mastermind behind behind the whole scheme -- a criminal genius that neither of them suspected!
"The Big Fall" is a detective thriller in the tradition of the great pulp heroes of yesterday -- Nick Carter, the Shadow, Doc Savage and the Spider. He lives in a city where it's always night, every cop is on the take and every dame is trouble walking on high heels. Join the Grey Ghost in his first full-length adventure, along with a special bonus -- the flash story "The Specter of Justice" that tells the story of how a two-bit jewel thief became the Grey Ghost, scourge of the underworld.
