Stainless Steel Rat

    (Eagle, 1985-1986)
™ and ©1985 Harry Harrison

In the world of the future, crime is virtually unknown. Ninety-nine percent of the crimes that do occur are petty things which are quickly solved by the police. It is with a sense of pride, then that intergalactic con-man Jim di-Griz—the Stainless Steel Rat—engages in that one percent which makes the police work for their pay.

Reprinting stories from 2000 A.D., this series covers the Rat’s earliest adventures, which in turn were adapted from the original Harry Harrison novels. As the series begins, di-Griz is found out by the super-secret Stealth Police, who offer him a choice—join them or die. True to his swashbuckling nature, di-Griz takes them up on their challenge, before stealing a spaceship and using it to reel in suspects by himself. With its fast-paced action, droll humor, and engaging lead character, The Stainless Steel Rat is one mini-series that shouldn’t be missed.
