Ms. Tree Quarterly

    (DC, 1990-1993)
™ and ©1990 Max Allan Collins and Terry Beatty

Max Allan Collins and Terry Beatty bring their female private eye, Ms. Tree, to DC, the fourth publisher to print her adventures. Although never a top seller, Ms. Tree maintained a consistent fan base despite the merry-go-round of publishers.

Aside from covers by artists like Mike Grell, Denis Cowan, and Bill Sienkiewicz, Ms. Tree at DC was essentially unchanged from previous incarnations and the increased page count allowed Collins to tell an entire story rather than a single chapter, so individual issues could stand alone. The quarterly schedule lasted for ten issues; the last two altered to 56 pages (down from 80) with no backup stories and retitled as Ms. Tree Special.
